Plans have been submitted to expand the capacity of a Carlisle solar farm by more than 350 per cent.
Kingmoor Park Properties have this week submitted plans to expand the size of their existing solar farm, increasing their yield by more than 350 per cent.
If approved, the new plans could mean that up to three quarters of the business park’s energy is generated on site by more than 12,000 solar panels sat on 12 acres of land.
The new panels would be situated on farmland next to the existing site and therefore not hinder any future development plans whilst allowing the livestock to continue grazing, Kingmoor Park Properties said.
