Battery Storage worth it? £75,000 rent, 4 acres

We’ve got a £2k/MW carrot dangling on front of us at the moment. First contact made.

If you’re lucky. Look closely at the fire risk and don’t get too excited.

Can I have a PM too please? I need an agent, but a good one rather than a local one if necessary.

My family has been approached about a project on their farm in Canada. There’s not much information / discussion about projects there so I’m wondering if anyone can share what amount of money is being deposited in trust/bonds for future land remidiation?

I've also had something similar for a 500MW (not a typo) site.
Very dubious but a bloody big carrot.

How dangerous are they if they catch fire? Thinking about the gasses etc and assuming that they were far enough away from another structure for the fire not to spread.

Latest ones I believe are looking at different cooling sytems and also, alternative battery chemistry. They are not looking for super light and compact in a fixed site?

Thanks for the reply. I A firm looking at putting one on some land near to me and, although it will not be right next to any dwellings, there is a lot of unrest in the area about it. The main problem seems to be they are dangerous and the poisonous gasses can affect an area of many miles. I wanted to know what the truth is.

Never let the truth get in the way of a good planning-related moan.

Quite!
The chat is that the smoke can be dangerous for up to 9km (I'm pretty sure it wasn't miles!)
I know of two others with planning permission, and one other prospective in our area, all of which are within 4km. It would seem that because the others aren't nearbye NIMBY doesn't come in to play.
