Seems reasonable and acceptable.

I was a bit amazed to read the estimate of 15ha for a 5MW ground based PV scheme and wonder if this was a mistake: we have an estimate from Solarsense for a 150kW ground-based scheme that would occupy about 1/3 acre and scaling up that gives about 5 ha for a 5MW scheme.

With regards to 'renewable' forms of power generation, will the study consider ALL forms of renewable power, I.E. apart from the usual 'wind or solar farms', wave electric generation from the Bristol Channel or pump and gravity generation.

All seems very suitable

It all seems reasonable in the face of the EU directive.However I think that your time and costs would be better employed if you were to put your weight behind the movement towards repealing the 2008 Climate Change Act .There is now undisputed evidence that suggests that climate change is a natural occurrence.The human race cannot fight nature and we would be foolish to try and do so and bankrupt the country. If the question is really about sustainable energy then we have the answer right on ou
