PLANS for a new 23-hectare solar farm at Cornbury Park will go on display this Friday.
People are being invited to come and have their say on the development, which would involve the installation of about 27,000 solar panels, each over two metres high.
Town councillor and chairman of Sustainable Charlbury, Liz Reason, said: “I think this would be a very good thing for the area, and the more the community engages with it, the better.
“We are suggesting that a certain amount is made available for local people to buy as a co-operative group.
“A similar thing happened with a solar farm in Swindon, where shares were made available to residents.
“It would give everyone the chance to be given empowerment and engage with their community’s efforts to create sustainable energy.”
