Consultation is an important part of the development of Whitestone Solar Farm. We intend to have two rounds of consultation to help ensure that local knowledge helps inform the project as it develops. Our first round of consultation will occur from 18 November 2024 to 17 January 2025. During this period, we are presenting our early proposals and asking for your feedback. This feedback, along with the results of ongoing environmental and technical assessments will help inform the updated project design that we present for our second round of consultation next year. Feedback from the second consultation will help inform the final design that we submit in our DCO application.
Your feedback is important, and we want to hear from you.
