COMMUNITY PEER-TO-PEER LEARNING SESSION / ALL FUTURENOUGHTS
13:30 – 15:00 / 25 April 2024
Peer-to-peer learning session: solar farms
Wakefield Council is developing a business case for solar farms.
Solar farms are vital to the UK’s renewable energy landscape, providing sustainable power to communities and businesses. While offering environmental benefits, they face challenges like land availability, planning regulations, and grid integration.
Nonetheless, advancements in technology and supportive government policies create opportunities for their installation.
Marian Kempson, Net Zero Innovation and Delivery Officer from Wakefield Council is eager to share experiences and insights with fellow local authorities and community energy partners.
Whether your organisation is exploring solar farms or already has them in operation, she invites you to join her for an engaging discussion.

DATA: accessible toolkits to support net zero
From emissions reductions to analysing mitigation and adaptation measurements, net zero is a minefield of data, toolkits, case studies, and databases.
Navigating a way through the scientific accountancy of net zero requires robust support mechanisms that consider challenges such as local area boundary crossovers and Scope 3 emissions tackling.
Hear from your fellow Futurenoughts about which toolkits and databases work for them and why.
Share your experiences and have a go with some of the newer systems available to you.
