Plans for a huge solar farm between Lincoln and Sleaford have been sent to North Kesteven District Council following consultation from local communities.
As well as delivering clean energy, parts of the proposed site would also be used for recreational, landscape and ecological enhancements. Since closing on Tuesday, March 7, initial plans have appeared on North Kesteven District Council’s planning portal so they can also voice their opinion on the matter.
“We’re grateful to everyone who took the time to read about our proposals, meet with us and share their feedback. “This means we need to apply for a special type of planning consent called a Development Consent Order to build and operate it, which is granted by Secretary of State. A separate 50MW solar farm near Horncastle went before East Lindsey District Council earlier this week.
