Aller Langport Solar Park

BSR Energy obtained planning consent for Aller Langport Solar Park in September 2017. This project, when built, will generate 14MWp of solar photovoltaic energy to the electricity network.

This solar park will produce enough clean renewable electricity to power 3,501 homes per year*, a saving of 3,101 tonnes CO2e!

The solar park will feature the latest technology from the industry, with a primary focus to maximise the yield over the given area.

* Based on an annual average domestic consumption per household (Great Britain) of 3,799 kWh. Source BEIS, Regional and Local authority electricity consumption statics 2018.
! Based on ‘Emissions associated with the generation of electricity at a power station (Electricity generation factors do not include transmission and distribution). Source BEIS, Greenhouse gas reporting: conversion factors 2020.
