Playters New Solar Farm 7.25 MW solar farm approved

London, UK (SPX)
Jul 24, 2014

EEW Eco Energy World is pleased that our proposal for a Solar Farm at Playters New Farm, Church Road, Ellough, Beccles was approved by the Waveney District Council Development Control Committee on Tuesday 15 July.

The solar farm will comprise of nearly 28,000 solar panels each measuring 1.65m x 0.992m. Once installed, the capacity will be 7.245MW, generating approximately 6,719MWH annually. This is enough to power around 2170 average homes.

Councillors and Council planning officers seemed particularly impressed with the screening for the site, which will limit any impact.

The Council report stated: 'For its size this site is arguably the best screened of any of the solar farms that the Council has considered.'

Svante Kumlin from Eco Energy World said: "We have been working through the planning process with Council officers to ensure we bring forward a good quality application that provides clean renewable energy without harming local views.

"The approval of this new solar farm in Ellough will make a positive contribution towards Waveney District Council and national renewable energy targets."
