There are many concerns from neighbours
A group of Nottinghamshire neighbours fear their peaceful village could turn into an 'industrial heartland' if plans for a new solar farm are given the green light. Plans have been submitted to Rushcliffe Borough Council for a farm on a 233 acre stretch of land close to Hawksworth and Thoroton, near Bingham.
A spokesperson for the action group, Neil Smith said: "This is rich arable very productive land, and the actual area in question fills basically the complete conservation area between the villages. It's something like 160,000 solar panels and that goes right up to the edge of both villages." Neil added that the area is known for its "beautiful rural environment" and that introducing a solar farm this large would completely ruin the area. The application for the site was submitted in December 2022.
"This proposal supports Rushcliffe Borough Council’s goal to be carbon neutral by 2030 and furthermore, the solar farm has also been specifically designed to enable continued prime agricultural use in the form of sheep farming alongside the production of renewable electricity. Sheep farming provides employment, supports rural economies, and landscapes managed by grazing sheep support a rich diversity of wildlife, while producing food.
"The size is around 200 football pitches and it's going to ruin the area. It's huge and it should be used for food."
