Solar Storm 85/365

The solar farm is up and running. 6.5MW of power is amazing.  In 25 years they'll be taken away again but in the meantime they'll make a lot of juice, pay a lot of rent and give a lot of money to the local community.  Oh yes and there'll be a wildflower meadow for grazing and bee hives.  

If it wasn't an economic necessity we wouldn't have leased the site out... but it will make a big difference to everyone here.  We're going to start off by building our own fibre network so it doesn't take 3 days to download a file!  

Anyway now the press have got a hold of it.. we will see what sh*t hits that big fan over there.   I hear the Mail on Sunday are planning a lovely hatchet job article on solar farms spoiling the landscape... although they had to hire (and later illegally landed) a helicopter to take photos of this site from the air as it's not really viewable from the ground.  Duh!
