Clean energy solutions company Enviromena will launch an appeal against Dorset Council’s decision to reject planning proposals for a 11.8MW solar installation spanning 40-acres at Cruxton Farm near Maiden Newton.
The Scottish Government have released a new planning system, National Planning Framework 4 (NPF4), this week which shows how planners will be expected to treat solar developments across Scotland.
Adjudications made in the coming months by the UK’s Planning Inspectorate may have a profound impact on solar farm applications submitted to Local Planning Authorities (LPAs) in coming years.
A 1.1MWp solar system will be installed at Eastbourne District General Hospital as part of a series of upgrades aimed at slashing carbon and energy costs at the site.
