The site is located on lower grade pasture land and will generate enough renewable energy to supply over 5,200 homes and businesses in the area.

The team worked with ecologists and landscape specialists to create a scheme that will benefit wildlife, enable continued grazing of livestock as well as generating energy. A long term management plan has been agreed which will ensure the proposed meadows, trees and hedges will be maintained for the duration of the project. An offsite mitigation area has also been included to allow space for birds to nest and to forage in the newly created habitats.

The scheme was approved by Staffordshire Moorlands planning committee and, following discharge of planning conditions, will commence to construction.
