The so-called Great Oaks Renewable Energy Park is suggested to be integrated in Cumbria, England, within an agricultural site covering 31 acres (77 acres), the developer stated today. The particular site is intended to end up being home to wind turbines completing 16.8 MW, an up to 24-MW solar array and a battery storage system of up to 20 MW in dimension.
According to the project's site, Ridge Clean Energy is presently carrying out technological site analyses and also surveys and also will later on seek a planning authorization from the Allerdale Borough Council. The application is seen to be filed in the autumn, with a decision anticipated in the spring of 2023.
Building and construction works are expected to take 6 months. As soon as up and running, the complex will create adequate electrical power to cover the annual power intake of around 16,900 regional homes.
