Botley West: "We are not funded by Russians”

Available for over a year

A large solar farm proposed for the Oxfordshire countryside would be "entirely inappropriate", critics have said. The 1,000 hectare (2,471-acre) Botley West Solar Farm is planned for three sites owned by Blenheim Palace. Developers Photovolt Development Partners (PVDP) said people would "not notice" the solar farm. They also answer the claims on local posters, made by 'Stop Botley West', that the project is "Russian owned".
