Site refinement

Since 2023, we have carefully reviewed and refined the overall area of the proposed site for the project. This process has led to a reduction in the total project area, ensuring that we focus on the most viable and sustainable locations.

Our extensive environmental and technical analyses have been instrumental in establishing key parameters that will guide the development of the project.

The Site and Site Selection

Identifying suitable sites for solar led developments requires a balance between grid connectivity and other factors such as: site accessibility, landscape, ecology, archaeology, and the ability to mitigate impacts on the local area.

We believe that the land we are exploring at Sturton-le-Steeple is well placed to deliver a project that can help the UK reach its decarbonisation goals, whilst minimising impacts on the local community. Steeple Renewables Project presents an opportunity for this part of Nottinghamshire to continue its historic role of helping to power the UK.

Proposed site plans

The pink areas on the plan represent areas that could be used to host solar panels and associated infrastructure and the green areas represent land that could be used for biodiversity mitigation and enhancement.
