A large solar farm will be built at High Ercall which was used by the RAF until the 1960s.
A former RAF airfield will be turned into a solar farm.
Telford and Wrekin councillors have given planning permission to use a 89.5 hectare site at High Ercall, covering 12 fields. It is expected to take 35 weeks to set the solar farm up and it will have a lifespan of around 40 years. As well as the solar panels, the site will include substations, internal access roads and perimeter fencing.Follow BBC West Midlands on
