Tewkesbury Borough Council approved Pathfinder Clean Energy's 40MW Lassington solar and battery storage project on farmland near Gloucester, supporting the council's carbon neutrality commitment by 2030 while allowing ongoing agricultural use of the land.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Clean Energy.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You can now target farming landowners open to solar income without sacrificing agricultural use, creating a stable revenue path that supports renewable rollout aligned with local carbon targets. The council's backing signals smoother approvals for agri-solar projects with community involvement in the UK.
