Renewable Connections Developments Ltd has applied to create a major solar farm at Carr House Farm in East Heslerton, near Scarborough. The 50 hectares of land – equivalent to around 70 football pitches – would be used for solar energy for four decades, according to planning documents submitted to North Yorkshire Council.
The solar farm would still include battery storage, transformers, substations and a variety of other associated infrastructure. If given the go-ahead, the construction phase of the development is expected to increase traffic on the road network surrounding the site, including the A64, for up to five months or more. The works would require 38 two-way vehicle movements per day, according to the plans.
