Work to start to support Leeds solar farm
Work is set to start to support the development of a new solar energy project to the east of Leeds that could provide power for about 12,000 homes.Banks Renewables secured approval from Leeds City Council’s planning committee earlier this year for its Barnsdale solar energy park scheme.The park will be able to generate enough electricity to meet the annual requirements of up to 12,000 family homes.Since securing approval, Banks has been working on the details of its development plan for the site, which lies between Kippax and Allerton Bywater, and is now set to undertake three weeks of site investigation work from today (11 October) to gather further geological and environmental data.The company will use the data it gathers to finalise its plans for the scheme, with construction works expected to begin in spring next year.
