Low Carbon has announced early-stage proposals for the West Oxfordshire Energy Park, a 500-megawatt solar project that includes battery storage. The project is located near Lechlade and Carterton and aims to power the equivalent of every home in West Oxfordshire. The project requires a Development Consent Order, which must be submitted to the Planning Inspectorate.
