Balcombe in West Sussex, site of UK’s biggest anti-fracking protest, is turning to crowdfunding to help raise £5m to green its electricity supply
The residents of Balcombe, the site of the UK’s biggest anti-fracking protests, have launched a bid to power their village and a neighbouring one in West Sussex entirely with solar energy.
The proposed 5MW solar farm will provide enough electricity for all 760 homes in Balcombe and the 500 homes in nearby West Hoathly .
