The new facilities are expected to provide clean energy output equal to the annual energy use of almost one million households

The project is expected to have an annual energy production of 200,000MWh, which will result in an annual offset of 106,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide

The project is expected to provide enough clean energy for approximately 18% of all homes in the borough

The facility almost doubled the original revenue forecasts in its first six-month operation

The plant, which comprises of a 35MW solar farm and a 27MWh battery storage facility, is located in York

The £14 million project will provide returns of £830K every year for council services
