๐ฟ Power Storage Plans Unveiled on Green Belt Land ๐ฟ Did you know that under 'special circumstances' green belt can sometimes be built on? Exciting developments are underway at Ashday Hall Farm! Sandbrook Capital BES Ltd has submitted plans to build an electricity storage facility on green belt land at Southowram, above Halifax. This facility will house 60 battery units and 30 transformers, aiming to store electricity from the National Grid during low demand periods for use when demand is higher. The proposed site, located off Ashday Lane, will include: - 11ft (3.5m) batteries - A substation - Two auxiliary transformers - A control room - A storage unit This initiative is designed to help stabilize the grid and significantly reduce energy losses, contributing to our climate goals. Despite the green belt location, Sandbrook Capital BES Ltd has emphasized that the public benefits will outweigh any land encroachment.
