Kingsway Solar Proposal

You will probably have heard about Downing Renewables proposal for a massive new solar farm east of the A11 to the north of West Wratting and Balsham. This proposal would produce acres of solar panels in the largest solar farm in Europe. The Kingsway proposal is so large it would be dealt with as a national infrastructure project. But there are potential issues; the impact on wildlife and our countryside would be radical. Added to which there is no indication that the proposal will be able to erect new power lines to connect to the grid at Burwell.

Downing renewables have a website at https://kingswaysolarfarm.co.uk/

There is a local campaign group which discusses local concerns with the project – Home – Kingsway Solar Community Action

There was previous consultation to which the Parish Council submitted a response – you can read it here – Comments on Kingsway proposal 1025

Since the applicant is proposing to re-submit we will leave this informaiton on the website for now!
