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.
