Anglo Renewables is pleased to announce the successful sale of the fully consented 40MW Rock Farm Solar Project near Ludlow, Shropshire, to Environmena.
About the rock farm solar project
The Rock Farm site has been designed to generate enough clean electricity to power more than 16,000 homes each year while offsetting an estimated 7,500 tonnes of carbon emissions annually. Scheduled to connect to the grid in 2026, the project forms part of the UK's wider transition towards a secure, low-carbon energy system.
Environmental Benefits and Biodiversity Enhancements
In addition to clean energy generation, the project has been carefully designed to deliver long-term environmental and biodiversity benefits. These measures include:
Tree and hedgerow planting to support local wildlife habitats.
Wildflower meadows to encourage pollinators and biodiversity uplift.
Sheep grazing for natural land management and dual land use.
These enhancements ensure the project integrates sensitively with the surrounding landscape while contributing to wider environmental goals.
