Residents are relieved
Rothwell residents are relieved after plans to build a lithium battery farm in the neighbourhood have been withdrawn by the developers.
Developers Firma Vogt have withdrawn the plans, much to the relief of locals. The company has yet to say why they have done this.Resident John Francis, 67, said he and his neighbours were delighted the plans had been withdrawn. "It feels as if a weight’s been lifted off our shoulders," he said. "When the news came through everyone was ectastic to be honest.
"You can be quite pessimistic about this sort of thing and you think they’ll probably get planning permission, but everyone’s very happy it’s been withdrawn." Firma Vogt wanted to build the facility on a strip of farmland on Westfield Road measuring just over four acres. Just last month, the company said it was "reviewing feedback" from objectors, but insisted battery storage facilities were "crucial for a sustainable and reliable energy future."
