UK-based PS Renewables received planning permission for the 34 MW Church Lane Solar Farm in Lincolnshire after an appeal. The approval was based on the benefits of renewable energy production and biodiversity gain, outweighing the temporary use of higher-grade agricultural land. Once built, the project will generate electricity for 8,500 homes annually. The solar farm will cover 42 hectares south of Welby. A senior planning manager noted that the decision follows a trend in appealing rulings on agricultural land use.
