An extensive new solar farm has been given the nod by North Ayrshire planning chiefs.
Gina Mackenzie Loughrey is proposing the installation of a solar farm with a generating capacity of 63 mega watts and a battery storage system with a capacity of up to 31.1 mega watts.
Section 36 of the Electricity Act states that consent is required from the Scottish ministers for the construction of such facilities with a capacity exceeding 50 megawatts.
