Great House Solar Farm

Great House Solar Farm

Producing clean energy for the future

Great House solar farm will save an estimated 16,188 tonnes of CO2 each year, the equivalent of taking over 10,000 cars off Welsh roads, every year. It will generate enough energy for 9000 homes.

 

Bydd fferm solar Great House yn arbed tua 16,188 tunnell o CO2 bob blwyddyn, sy’n cyfateb i gymryd dros 10,000 o geir oddi ar ffyrdd Cymru, bob blwyddyn. Bydd yn cynhyrchu digon o ynni ar gyfer 9000 o gartrefi.

Our proposals for Enhancing Biodiversity in the Local Environment

Our proposals involve the creation of new habitats, offering food and shelter to local wildlife. We will continue to develop our plans throughout the build as the site becomes part of the landscape and we welcome local knowledge and input from the community.

 

Mae ein cynigion yn ymwneud â chreu cynefinoedd newydd, gan gynnig bwyd a lloches i fywyd gwyllt lleol. Byddwn yn parhau i ddatblygu ein cynlluniau drwy gydol yr adeiladu wrth i’r safle ddod yn rhan o’r dirwedd a chroesawn wybodaeth leol a mewnbwn gan y gymuned.

Communications / Cyfathrebu

We understand the importance of open communication and transparency. Throughout the construction process, we are committed to keeping you well-informed about project developments, timelines, and any potential impacts on the local area. Regular updates will be provided through this site, through contact from our UK team and through channels agreed with the local community.

Rydym yn deall pwysigrwydd cyfathrebu agored a thryloywder. Drwy gydol y broses adeiladu, rydym wedi ymrwymo i roi’r wybodaeth ddiweddaraf i chi am ddatblygiadau prosiect, llinellau amser, ac unrhyw effeithiau posibl ar yr ardal leol. Bydd diweddariadau rheolaidd yn cael eu darparu trwy’r wefan hon, trwy gyswllt gan ein tîm yn y DU a thrwy sianeli y cytunwyd arnynt gyda’r gymuned leol.
