Villagers across south-east Leeds have vowed to fight plans to build two battery storage farms less than a mile apart
Plans to build two battery storage farms less than a mile apart have sparked fears across villages in south-east Leeds. Harmony Energy and Banks Renewables have each submitted separate planning applications to set up facilities on two plots of land near Allerton Bywater.
But Ali Davies, from nearby Ledston, said local people were “vehement” in their opposition to both schemes. She’s set up a ‘Save Our Villages - Allerton Bywater, Kippax and Ledston’ Facebook group in response to the plans, which has been joined by nearly 400 people. The Fire Service said the lithium in the batteries would extinguishing a blaze at the site difficult, saying they would need “significant amounts of water for a protracted period”. They added: “If we were to let it burn there would be a significant impact on the highly populated suburbs, which would all be significantly impacted from the vapour/smoke plume.”
