Beane Solar Farm

Beane Solar Farm

RES has now submitted a planning application for the 49.9MW Beane Solar Farm on land west of Cottered, Hertfordshire. The solar farm would include energy storage to help increase the flexibility and generation opportunities of the site.

The solar farm has been specifically designed to be dual-purpose allowing continued agricultural use in the form of sheep grazing and the production of renewable energy. In addition, significant planting and biodiversity enhancement measures are proposed as part of the application to enhance the existing biodiversity. Through these measures, the proposed solar farm could deliver a 98.40% biodiversity net gain (BNG) for habitat units, 189.90% for hedgerow units, and 10.19% in watercourse units.
