Proposal for a Solar farm and energy system
Pennon Group is developing proposals for a solar farm and energy storage system, situated north of Dunfermline. The site was formerly an open-cast coal mine. The land has been fully remediated by the land-owner and it’s development now as a solar farm will be a major step towards a sustainable future for a growing city. A planning application was submitted to the Local Planning Authority in April 2022 following an extensive local public consultation.
The project will be able to supply the electricity needs of over 6,500 homes at peak power
Pennon Group is exploring supplying cheap power to major local power users
Biodiversity is a key aspect of detailed project design
