Proposed solar farm at Green Lane, Grantham, Lincolnshire, NG32 2HU
The proposal involves Lightsource bp funding the development of a solar installation that will have an output power capacity of 30MW (Megawatts).
We are in the early stages of this project and want to engage with the local community to gather feedback and help ensure our designs are locally adapted. As such, we held an in-person community consultation at Olde Barn Hotel, Marston on Wednesday 5th October 2022, to allow members of the public to drop in and catch up with one of our team, to find out more about our current plans for the project.
You can find out more about our initial plans by clicking on the information leaflet below.
