New analysis from Friends of the Earth revealed that 374,900 hectares—totalling 2.9% of land in England—are suitable for new onshore wind and solar farms to generate a combined 225,000GWh.
Worcester City Council has been awarded £195,000 from the UK government’s Swimming Pool Support Fund (SPSF) to add solar panels to the roof of Perdiswell Leisure Centre.
New research from CPRE, also known as the Countryside Charity, revealed that 48 of the 50 English parliamentary constituencies with the highest solar generation are in rural areas.
