Thinking of changing your agricultural land to solar, read on…

Ed Miliband’s recent approval of three large solar farm developments has sparked debate about the use of agricultural land for renewable energy projects. Here are some key points to consider if you’re contemplating changing your land use for solar energy:

Potential Benefits

Financial Incentives

  • Solar farms can provide a steady, long-term income stream for landowners.
  • Some farmers are being offered up to £1000 per acre annually for solar leases.

Environmental Impact

  • Solar energy contributes to reducing carbon emissions and combating climate change.
  • Ed Miliband and the Labour Government aims to quadruple UK solar power to make the country a “clean energy superpower”.

Considerations and Concerns

Food Security

  • There are concerns about the loss of productive farmland for food production.
  • The UK currently produces only 60% of its food domestically.

Land Use

  • As of 2022, ground-mounted solar used just 0.1% of UK land.
  • The National Farmers’ Union (NFU) supports solar development when balanced with food security concerns.

Reversibility

  • Some solutions, like those using solar ballast blocks, allow for easier return to agricultural use if needed.

Balancing Factors

  • There is a preference for solar farms to be located on lower quality agricultural land.
  • Local planning authorities consider various factors when approving solar projects.

Diversification

  • Solar farms can offer farmers a way to diversify income and keep farms profitable.

Biodiversity

  • Some argue that solar farms can actually benefit biodiversity when properly managed.

Before making a decision, carefully consider your long-term goals, the quality of your land and the potential impacts on both your farm and the wider community.

Consult with local planning authorities and agricultural advisors to fully understand the implications of converting land to solar use.

We used Elite Precast as part of our modular solution for reclaiming road space to provide safe new outdoor hospitality areas. Really impressed with price and service, highly recommended!
Julia Robinson, Southside District
The simple and cost effective solution provided by Elite's blocks has meant that we can recycle a material that would otherwise have been disposed of in a landfill.
Ian Chattington, Power Plane Ltd
Just a quick email, to say many thanks, for the exceptional service you have showed, the product is perfect, payment was easy and efficient with Ali and your driver Peter very obliging and very helpful. Please pass on my thanks and I will definitely be passing on your details to my colleagues in the industry.
Ben Carter-Griffiths, Meadow Fields Marquees Ltd

Sales Director, Marshalls Civils & Drainage
Many thanks for the successful operation on Saturday. An extremely efficient, professional and expertly undertaken exercise by the lads. Please pass on my thanks to them all.
Nick Patterson, Street Scene
The Jersey Barriers you installed in our Plant are superb in terms of quality and price, and the service was excellent, too - thank you. I would definitely recommend you to other colleagues
Phillip Lagunowitsch, Siniat Ltd
Your help early on, delivery, products and price were first class, which helped the whole project run very smoothly and on budget. I would highly recommend Elite to anyone who needs your products.
Roger Summers, Doocey Group
The Duo blocks were a great success. We used them to extend the tipping pit before blocking the grain store door, which increased our storage from 1600T to 2600T.
Peter Shiles, Tyning Farms - Chipping Sodbury
The simple and cost effective solution provided by Elite's blocks has meant that we can recycle a material that would otherwise have been disposed of in a landfill.

The installation went according to plan and the bunkers are working very well..... Thanks for your excellent service!!
Chris May, Sapa Profiles UK Ltd
Thanks again for what is an excellent product along with a first class service
Andy Smith, Wales & West Utilities
My customer came back to say his experience was first-class and the driver who delivered the items went out of his way to make everything go smoothly. He will be back with future orders.
