[Plans for a huge solar farm in
Lincolnshire have been given approval.
The Tillbridge Solar project,
which would cover around 3,000 acres (1,214 hectares),
is classified as a Nationally
Significant Infrastructure Project,
meaning the decision to allow the plan
is determined by the government.

The applicants said the scheme - close to the village
of Glentworth and south of the A631
between Gainsborough and Caenby Corner
- would be able to power about 300,000 homes,
making it larger than any currently built.

Opponents have said it would
"industrialise the countryside".

area between the villages of
Springthorpe, Heapham, Upton, Kexby,
Hemswell, Harpswell, Glentworth
and Fillingham.]

Getting rid of all that green space, basically for nothing. Solar is just a racket, especially in Northern England.

I take it these panels will be made in China using coal to run the factories then shipped half way round the world. Very green.

It won't though. Solar energy is a swizz.

Making and shipping the panels, and the green space being destroyed ... it would be greener to just use fossil fuels and not make the panels.
