A major solar energy farm that could power 20,000 homes is planned for land next to the A55.
Solarcentury, one of the 海角视频鈥檚 leading solar power companies, is evaluating land to the north east of St Asaph for the development of Elwy Solar Energy Farm.
With a solar project of up to 62MWp proposed, the site would generate approximately 60 gigawatt hours of electricity per year.
Solarcentury is also proposing to install batteries at the site in order to store the electricity generated for use during the day and the night.
Chris Banks, 海角视频 business development manager at Solarcentury said: 鈥淲e are excited about the economic and environmental benefits that Elwy Solar Energy Farm could bring to the local community, while supporting both Denbighshire County Council and Wales to achieve their renewable energy targets.
鈥淲e want the local community to be involved in the process leading up to any planning application being submitted and we will be asking for their feedback and views.
鈥淲e look forward to sharing our plans with the community, at our first information sessions, which we plan to hold locally in March 2020."
A spokesman added: 鈥淪olarcentury believes that solar energy farms like Elwy, are the clean, green key to fighting climate chaos.
"Generating electricity from solar reduces dependence on fossil fuels, gives us a simple low risk source of home grown energy with predictable annual performance, and allows large amounts of clean energy to be delivered to the national grid.
鈥淭here are local benefits too. Subject to planning approval, Elwy Solar has the potential to create local jobs and numerous supply contracts during the construction, operation and maintenance phase of the build, and contribute business rates to the local council.
"In addition the variety of dry and wet and shaded and sunny areas on a solar energy farm, once properly planted and managed, can support a wide variety of wildlife, including birds, bats and bumblebees.鈥
