Green Energy International are pleased to announce that planning permission has been granted for the Patrickston Solar Farm Scheme in Stirling, Scotland.

A typical 5MW solar farm requires 25 acres of land and will take approximately 12 weeks to construct. GEINT enters into a long-term option to lease agreement, usually 25 years with the landowner. Once the agreement is signed and the finance secured construction can commence. Rental is normally paid quarterly in arrears once the agreement is signed.

The GEINT sales and marketing team are regularly contacting new landowners to identify new 20+ acre sites. These must not be in areas of designated land quality e.g. Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty or Areas of Special Landscape Value nor be in a flood risk area. Ideally, the land is relatively flat or south facing and is well hidden from residential areas or Ancient Monuments. Our in-house experts manage the entire process from initial site selection through the grid and planning applications to development, build, and commissioning which is all fully financed by ourselves and our partner investor.
