did they mean a 35MW with a 35MWh battery? That's poor - from a specialist publication anyway!dan_b wrote: ↑Wed Jul 02, 2025 5:45 pm Another new solar farm energised, this time in Devon.

Re: 4 UK solar farms energised
Rather annoyingly, the convention for large scale supply side storage has always been to report the power. Often, but not always, we get the energy too, although IMO, I think we are now seeing the energy in more/most reports (where available) these days.
For this scheme, there are many news articles, but I can't find any going further than reporting the power at this time.
