Kingsway Solar

Kingsway Solar Farm Limited is developing proposals for a new solar farm and overhead line connection to the national grid between Burwell and Balsham in Cambridgeshire (the "Scheme").

The scheme would have capacity to generate  around 500 megawatts (MW) of electricity, the equivalent of powering approximately 175,000 homes annually.

It would also include associated infrastructure, including co-located battery energy storage systems (BESS) and inter-array connections to link together the land parcels where the solar panels are located.

Our Vision and Objectives

Our vision for Kingsway Solar is to deliver cleaner, greener, and lower-cost energy, whilst delivering direct benefits to the local environment and community.
