A potential new development, the Great North Road Solar Park, could create as many as 460 new full and part time jobs in Nottinghamshire.
According to the developers, Elements Green, up to 400 temporary jobs could be created in the construction phase at the site in the Newark-on-Trent area of Nottinghamshire.
A further 60 permanent jobs will be created in the long term once the facility is up and running.
According to the project’s website, the development ‘has the potential to provide enough clean, affordable energy to meet the power needs of approximately 400,000 homes while avoiding more than 250,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions every year.’
Announcing the plans, the head of development for the Great North Road Solar Park, Mark Noone, said:
“The benefits of the Great North Road Solar Park are not just limited to cheaper bills and greener energy. There will be hundreds of secure well-paid jobs created during construction and the project’s legacy would include scores of skilled positions once the site is operational.”
“Over half of those will be engineering roles, but there will also be a need for admin and support staff, and there will be plenty of chances for these roles to be filled locally. These will be good jobs which are permanent and pay a proper wage.”
“The skills and training opportunities on offer to local people will form part of a separate announcement to follow in the coming months."
“Whilst the Great North Road Solar Park is still currently a proposal, the benefits it could bring to this area, be it jobs, community funding and cleaner energy are huge. And this all signals our intent to make a permanent and positive economic difference to the area through the Great North Road Solar Park,” added Mr Noone.
