Maisemore Solar Farm

Maisemore site

Producing clean energy for the future

Maisemore Solar Farm will save an estimated 16,188 tonnes of CO2 each year, the equivalent of taking over 10,000 cars off the roads every year. It will generate enough energy for 9000 homes.

New cycle and pedestrian access

The project will also see the creation of a new cycle and pedestrian access to link Maisemore to the Over Basin via an existing footbridge across the Leadon.  Not only will this provide a valuable link to Gloucester, avoiding the busy A417, it will also provide recreational opportunities for Maisemore residents to walk along the Severn river.
