Low Carbon is pleased to announce that we have fully commissioned Fox Covert Solar Farm. The 23MW UK project in Buckinghamshire, UK has entered full operations by issuing the Provisional Acceptance Certificate (PAC). This announcement follows the news that Low Carbon’s Ter Apel Solar Farm became our first Dutch site to reach this landmark moment. Fox Covert Solar Farm has the capacity to generate enough renewable energy to power more than 10,000 homes and is expected to avoid approximately 10,000 tonnes of CO2e emissions annually. View more on Fox Covert here: https://lnkd.in/eZcZMqnR To help deliver Fox Covert, Low Carbon have partnered with leading engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractor, EQUANS, with whom we are working closely together on a large portfolio of UK solar projects. Low Carbon’s Managing Director of Portfolio Management, Steven Hughes said: “We are thrilled to have reached this major milestone for our first UK solar project since becoming an IPP. The project will play an important role helping decarbonise the local grid network, while delivering a series of biodiversity enhancements that will boost nature around the site. The successful delivery of Fox Covert has been achieved by working in lockstep with our partners, Equans, who are playing a vital role in helping us get as much renewable energy on the system as possible to fight climate change.” Gregory Allouis, Energy Solutions Director at Equans UK & Ireland said: “On behalf of Equans UK & Ireland, I am pleased to announce that we achieved PAC at Fox Covert Solar Farm for our loyal customer Low Carbon. This important milestone in the life of a solar project was achieved in May 2024 and is testament to our excellent collaborative approach. Low Carbon have an ambitious strategy for the deployment of new solar assets in the UK; it is with the full commitment of our Equans Solar & Storage team that we will carry on delivering these critical assets for the UK economy and its communities, on the path towards Net Zero!” Fox Covert Solar Farm is the first in a 5 GW pipeline of solar and battery projects that Low Carbon is currently developing in the UK.
