Concerning Wroughton, there is faint hope. A private company owned by the taxpayer thru’ Swindon B. C. plans to cover about 100 acres of the airfield with 160,000 solar panels. The ‘faint hope’ is connected to a possible veto of the plan by the Communities Secretary, Eric Pickles.

He has 21 days to consider the matter. On a technical matter, does anyone know whether these panels will be fixed or enabled to track the passage of the Sun thus ensuring maximum power return?
