It will be located near the towns of Whitstable and Faversham, in Kent.The U.K. government on Thursday gave the green-light for plans to develop the country's largest solar park, a sprawling project which will cover a large chunk of land on the north Kent coast.
The subsidy-free 350 megawatt scheme will use 880,000 solar panels and have the capacity to power more than 91,000 homes. The project is also set to include an energy storage facility to send electricity to the grid as and when required. "This is a major milestone on the road towards a U.K. powered by clean, affordable renewables," Hewett added.
