Wetherby Services has submitted plans for a solar farm on land next to the A1 (M) service station — with the renewable energy it generates used to power the site’s electric vehicle (EV) charging points.
The land north of the service station, which is currently used for agricultural purposes, spans more than five hectares but it would be turned over to solar panels under plans submitted by Moto Services to North Yorkshire Council this month. According to planning documents, the proposal forms part of Moto’s strategy to bring forward solar farms on land next to Moto’s existing service stations. Moto Services is the UK’s largest motorway service station operator with 59 sites.
However, as part of it is also located in areas with medium to high risk of flooding, North Yorkshire Council has recommended that its flooding department is consulted on the proposal. The solar farm application follows the launch of 12 EV charging points at Wetherby Services last year. Planning documents state: “The proposed development is deemed crucial for the ongoing functionality of the associated Wetherby MSA.
