The plant is located near the village of Hothfield, near Ashford (Kent), and it represents a total investment of over £7 million.
The new plant in Hothfield adds to the 8.9MWp solar farm in East Sussex, a project announced in October. In addition, in April this year, construction of a 12MWp plant began in Alresford, Hampshire, which confirms the Group has an active and successful UK development pipeline.
The solar farm will generate <strong>enough electricity to provide for 1,850 homes and avoid the emission of 62,300 tonnes of CO2 during its lifetime</strong>.
OPDE is on track to meet its <strong>objective of connecting 100 MW of photovoltaic</strong> capacity by March 2015.
