The landscape of solar energy development in the UK has evolved rapidly in recent years. As recently as 2017, Scotland’s largest solar project was our client Elgin Energy’s 14 MW project at Errol. Fast-forward to January 2025, and two solar projects in England, totalling almost 1 GW of capacity, plus co-located storage, were given the green light by the UK government. That is 71 times the generating capacity of Errol.
