A 20MW solar farm near Bath has been switched on. Built with claims around enhancing biodiversity etc. Wonder what those measures actually are?

Article says tree planting.

Quote from the article:
โ€œLocated in Somerset near Bath, the solar farm includes designated areas for tree planting to support local biodiversity and wildlife.โ€

Doesnโ€™t actually say they will plant any of those trees, mind.๐Ÿ™‚

Don't trees have a nasty habit of throwing shade on solar panels though, lol.
