A LARGE solar farm could soon be built on land near Oxford.
Proposals for a solar farm and battery storage facility to the south west of Cowley Substation in Nuneham Courtenay have been submitted to South Oxfordshire District Council.
Enso Green Holdings Limited, a joint venture between Enso Energy and the Green Investment Group, has put in the plans and say the site, off the A4074, could generate enough power for the equivalent of 13,000 homes each year.
It would be built on 139 hectares, comprising the grid connection cable route to the Cowley Substation and six large adjoining fields.
