The well known renewable energy developer, TGC Renewables, just managed to get permission to start planning a 3.8 MW solar park near Hyle, Cornwall.
Originally called The Green Company, TGC was founded by Ben Cosh and Rob Denman, their goal was to have an impact on climate change and energy security for the future, by making solar/wind energy financially viable and accessible to everyone, in order to preserve their way of life, without making radical changes.
The company was backed by a leading UK investment house, established in the UK for over 125 years, the Constantine Group, with a huge international experience in finance and investments, they now have offices all around the United Kingdom and a lot of experts which offer the full range of skills and expertise to cover all the stages of any solar project.
TGC works mainly with farmers and landowners, who have diversified their venues by investments in renewable energies of their own or they lease their land for other people developments/projects.
This new project will take place on a 6.2 hectares of local class 3b agricultural grazing land, the land owner, a farmer, will get a guaranteed rental income for the usual 25 years and TGC estimated that the 3.8 MW solar farm will be able to provide almost 800 local residences with renewable energy for the decades to come.
Mr. Roy Amner, the director at TGC Renewables commented about the planning permission, he stated that:
“We are delighted that after detailed consultation with all interested parties, our planning team secured the full support of the Strategic Planning Committee for this development.”
The solar farm will use about 1200 solar photo voltaic modules and 20 racking tables, the project will allow the farmer to graze its livestock across the park while in operation.
