The proposal for the Beacon Fen Energy Farm, poised to supply electricity to about 130,000 households, has been turned down by local councillors. The size of the proposed location, aimed at encouraging renewable energy, was considered inappropriately large and raised concerns regarding the potential repercussions on the local environment and community.
Originally reported by LincolnshireLive, and then adapted by The Lincoln Post, the council’s reservations were centred around the suitability of the site’s magnitude.
