Solar farm in Little Hulton
As part of the council’s drive towards carbon neutrality, a two-megawatt solar farm is being built off Kenyon Way in Little Hulton.
With 3,774 solar panels, it will generate 2.1 megawatt hours of clean electricity per year and will reduce Salford’s carbon emissions by 720 tonnes each year, as well as saving the council money on buying energy.
Part of the Unlocking Green Energy in Greater Manchester scheme, the solar farm has had funding from the European Regional Development Funding and Salford City Council.
