[QUOTE="snarling bee, post: 7477879, member: 681"] I personally can't see solar parks being returned to agriculture. Why would they? It will be repowered and keep going. I see it as an asset for future generations rather than a liability, they will have the choice of owning it outright or renting it out again. Solar panels usually keep going at an annual degradation rate of about 0.75%, so they will still be producing something in 40 years time, although recent estimates put the degradation at only 6% in 25 years. Why are solar panels hazardous waste? They are now recyclable and classed as general waste in the UK. I'm sure they will be more easily recycled in the future. [/QUOTE]
