Batteries: no meaningful consultation on batteries; particularly regarding the scattergun placement approach and fire risk, visual impact and noise. The scattergun approach has not been justified or compared with a single placement. The vast majority of batteries will be located within 300 metres of houses. The legislation protects and ring fences schools and care homes but surprisingly excludes residential houses and gardens and this is a major concern. The oversizing of the scheme to allow for battery storage has never been explained. Archaeology: The piling for solar panels would destroy archaeological sites. Traffic Management Plan: EPL001 and their advisors have produced an inadequate plan and their proposal will cause serious traffic problems in and around both villages.
