  • Will aim to co-locate battery storage and ground-mounted solar PV with the wind farm to maximise the use of the grid connection

  • Will offer a community benefit fund, that will be developed and shaped by local people

  • Is located approximately 2km from Patna in an area that benefits from an excellent win resource and does not have any landscape designation restricting development

  • Bird and other ecological surveys have commenced and other technical assessments are ongoing
