43,000面板太阳能农厂计划为旧采石场
在Burton-Trent,斯塔福德郡(Burton-The)附近的Newbold Quary,正在为新恢复的牧场土地组成的太阳能电场。
综合行业正在计划两阶段开发计划,以便提供由8,800个太阳能电池板组成的初始2.2MW安装。该提案本月将于本月向斯塔福德郡县议会提供第二阶段第二阶段第二阶段。该第二阶段将是8.3MW的延伸,包括34,600面板。
汇总行业希望减少其碳排放量,该计划取代了先前的计划,以在现场构建风力涡轮机。这引起了竞选活动来保护英格兰(CPRE),而且公司选择了太阳能农场。
The farm, when complete, would have a maximum installed capacity of 15MW and the plans are being progressed by the company’s renewable energy development partner, AGRenewables Ltd. Electricity from the site will be fed directly into the on-site grid infrastructure with any power not used ‘bought back’ under a power purchase agreement (PPA) in order to help the company reduce its carbon emissions throughout the UK. The site on which the solar farm is to be built would still be able to be managed as a wild flower meadow throughout the life of the farm.
“作为一家公司,我们致力于可持续建筑,Newbold的太阳能电场将帮助我们的公司减少我们运营的碳足迹”Tim Claxton,Emplagate Industries“高级庄园测量师在Newbold采石场。“虽然我们看着在Newbold寻找一个风力涡轮机的可行性,但我们明确了我们有需要进展太阳能应用所需的空间,这具有在现场产生更多能量的能力。此外,我们选择开发的领域是良好的筛选,对网站上没有影响采石业务,对我们批准的恢复计划没有影响。“
