This application seeks planning permission for the installation of a 1.5MW ground-mounted solar PV array at Aldermaston Rectory, Reading (RG7 4QR). The proposed system will consist of 2,000 high-efficiency monocrystalline panels (Trina Solar TSM-720-NEG19RC.20) arranged in a ground-mount configuration, covering an active PV surface area of approximately 9,972.79 m?. The installation is expected to generate an estimated annual yield of 1,392,957 kWh, offsetting 324,559 kg of CO2 emissions in its first year.This project aims to maximise the site's renewable energy generation potential, contributing significantly to the local and national net-zero goals while having minimal visual and ecological impact on the surrounding environment.
