This website contains information about our plans for Rosefield Solar Farm, a proposed new solar farm with battery storage in Buckinghamshire.
We are now consulting on our updated proposals for Rosefield Solar Farm. The deadline for providing feedback is 11:59pm on Thursday 6 December 2024. All the consultation materials can be found here on our website, where you can read and download our consultation materials. You can also visit our virtual exhibition and share your feedback.
07 November 2024: We have published additional information that was unintentionally omitted from the PEIR. While we do not believe that this minor omission would have affected the ability of anyone to understand and provide feedback on our proposals, we have extended the consultation deadline to 11:59pm on 6 December 2024. This is to provide the opportunity for this additional information to be considered, should this be needed.

What is Rosefield Solar Farm
Rosefield Solar Farm is a proposed new solar farm with battery storage in Buckinghamshire that would provide enough clean energy to power more than 57,000 homes* and save more than 125,000 tonnes of carbon** every year.
Like most solar farms, Rosefield Solar Farm would have a lifespan of around 40 years. Once the panels are removed, the land could be returned to agricultural use.

We also want Rosefield to benefit the local area throughout its lifetime and we will work closely with the community to identify opportunities to support local initiatives.
Rosefield Solar Farm will help the UK build a cleaner, more secure energy system and will make an important contribution to meeting the government’s target of net zero carbon emissions by 2050.
The UK is undergoing a major change in the way it meets its energy needs. In 2019, the government legislated to commit the country to achieving ‘net zero’ carbon emissions by 2050 against 1990 levels.
*Based upon the average domestic electricity consumption per home (temperature corrected) per the Energy Consumption in the UK (published September 2021, Table C9 of ECUK: Consumption data tables).
** Based upon BEIS’s “all fossil fuels” emissions statistic of 450 tonnes of carbon dioxide per GWh of electricity supplied in the Digest of UK Energy Statistics (published 2021).
