The proposed site is approximately 1.2km south east of St Fergus village and due east of the A90, Peterhead. Access to the site will be from the A90.  The proposed project covers approximately 260 acres and will accommodate approximately 50 megawatts (MW) of ground mounted solar PV panels and a 20MW energy storage facility. A project lifetime of 40 years is proposed. The proposed solar farm will generate approximately 54,000,000 kWh per annum powering 15,000 homes or 20,000 electric vehicles (EVs) every year.
