Britain’s largest community solar farm to shut down due to grid overload fears
Britain’s largest community solar farm in north Devon was ordered to shut temporarily by the energy system operator to prevent grid overload caused by high rooftop solar generation. The shutdown, implemented weeks before a heatwave, is expected to cost the cooperative scheme approximately £2 million in lost revenue and impacts its ability to pay members. The network issues have been known since 2023, with delays in equipment upgrades meant to address capacity problems, now scheduled for completion in September.
