No Mega Solar Power Stations on SSSIs
Gwent Wildlife Trust oppose all development proposals on protected Sites of Special Scientific Interest as they are the jewels in the crown of Gwent’s wildlife heritage.
Whilst we support renewable energy, we believe it must be the right development in the right place. SSSIs, including this one at Magor, should not be developed as we cannot destroy the environment to save the environment.
There are tens of thousands of acres of land throughout Wales which are much more suited to solar farms than SSSIs.

Grow plants that help each other! Maximise your garden for you and for wildlife using this planting technique.
Hedgerow
Hedgerows are one of our most easily encountered wildlife habitats, found lining roads, railways and footpaths, bordering fields and gardens and on the coast.
Seagrass
Meadows of seagrass spread across the seabed, their dense green leaves sheltering a wealth of wildlife including our two native species of seahorse.
Watch what you wash away
Some cosmetics, soaps, washing-up liquids and cleaning products can be harmful to wildlife with long-lasting effects.
Our impact
We work across Gwent and beyond to restore wildlife, reconnect people to nature and champion natural solutions.
Rocky habitat
Rocky habitats are some of the most natural and untouched places in the UK. Often high up in the hills and hard to reach, they are havens for some of our rarest wildlife.
Upland acid grassland and rush pasture
These grasslands, occupying much of the UK's heavily-grazed upland landscape, are of greater cultural than wildlife interest, but remain a habitat to some scarce and declining species.
