Most small villages have a pub, post office or shop. But, the village of Sheriffhales in Shropshire has something different… A solar farm. The village, home to 700 residents, has been given a funding boost thanks to its community energy scheme. The 3.2MW solar farm has the capacity to generate 984,000 kWh of renewable electricity - enough to power 825 homes each year. It has made a huge impact so far… At St Mary's Church, the solar farm provided £20,000 to enable plans to be put together to repair the tower roof, reorient the bell frame and stop a decades-old problem of rainwater damage. How would you feel if you had a local solar farm? https://lnkd.in/eQZVtfrZ #energy #artificialintelligence #data
