The county council fears losing 'productive arable land in the breadbasket of England'
The county council will put up a “strong case” for Lincolnshire’s farmland as vast swathes could be turned into solar farms.
The plans are all deemed nationally significant due to their scale, meaning they will go to the Secretary of State rather than local authorities. It has been talking to developers and emphasising “the particular importance of protecting the county’s best and most versatile agricultural land.” “We will be looking very carefully at [the projects], including the carbon balancing arguments of installing vast areas of solar panels on productive arable land in the bread basket of England.”There are a total of 16 National Significant Infrastructure Project at various stages across Lincolnshire, many of them solar farms.
