Solarcentury to build UK’S most environmentally friendly solar farm
The new Solar Farm with include Composting toilets, biodiesel generators and a car sharing scheme for staff will all be features of a new 48MW Solar farm which developers say will set the ‘highest environmental standards ever for a ground-mounted solar installation’.
Solarcentury and Primrose Solar have teamed up to design and construct the solar farm on Grade 4 agricultural land near Portsmouth in Hampshire, with environmental considerations incorporated throughout its planning, construction and operational lifetime.
The impact of the Solar farm’s construction has been minimised through the implementation of various green initiatives. These include using biodiesel generators to cut carbon emissions; transporting contractors living within five miles to the site in mini buses; and reducing landfill by recycling all food waste, packaging and general site waste.
