More eco rubbish. Let's hope they are more or less invisible from ground level and the club get their money back before they need replacing.

Aesthetically they are a blot on the landscape, whether on roofs and even worse when desecrating fields. A really awful example is just outside Totnes if you are interested. Hopefully the club have done their sums with an independent CBA and not just jumped on the eco bandwagon. Hopefully, also, the classic lines of the modified Leich roofline remains intact with anything clagged on remote from view! :greensmile:
I know huge installations of solar panels used to send some fire safety officers into cold sweats for some reason. The idea of a big bank of solar panels generating electricity above a building that had just caught fire.signalspast":1tp7lnv5 said:Every new building as part.of the planning application should be forces to fit solar panels commercial or residential

Plastic and the environment is a completely different issue; Solar panels in the Northern hemisphere are at best of marginal value and obviously only contribute in daylight; Sincerely hope the club get their money back in my lifetime; Global warming or cooling is mainly driven by solar activity and the UK's CO2 contribution is irrelevant, in fact CO2 is probably not a driver in any event; Suggest we judge by scientific fact and not those provided by a Swedish teenage eco warrior who got her facts from an on-line game (or Greenpeace loons for that matter!).... :scarf: Night all.....

Yes it's only daylight they work and winter when we have the highest consumption of electricity is when they produce the least. However if we combine it with wind farms on say the likes of dartmoor and exmoor and tidal farms I feel sure that we would soon have a relative cheap and carbon free source of power.
