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.

There are tens of thousands of acres of land throughout Wales which are much more suited to solar farms than SSSIs.
