Anesco has completed the construction of the 4.2MW Oxcroft solar project in Derbyshire bringing the total installed capacity on Harworth Estates’ land to 46MW.
The 28.6 acre project on the formal coal disposal site will be operational for the next 25 years, the developer said.
Anesco director of sales Lee Adams said such project make “sound economic and environmental sense”.
“Through these installations we will not only be regenerating disused land but will be creating employment, generating renewable energy and helping to reduce the UK’s carbon emissions,” said Adams.
Harworth estate surveyor Hannah Moxon added: “The solar farm at Oxcroft is the eighth now live on our land and the fifth delivered in partnership with Anesco, bringing the total installed capacity of solar generation in our portfolio to over 46MW.”
