Welcome to the

Camp Farm Solar Consultation Website

Project Introduction

Ampyr Solar Europe (ASE) is developing a proposal for a solar farm and battery energy storage system to the northwest of the village of Hurley, in North Warwickshire. The proposed solar farm will cover 73 hectares at Camp Farm.

Who is the developer?

This project is being developed by AMPYR Solar Europe, a major new European solar enterprise. Ampyr Solar Europe was created in 2021 through the merger of NaGa Solar with the existing Ampyr Energy UK joint venture between AGP Group and Hartree Partners. Ampyr Solar Europe operates across Germany, UK and the Netherlands, with a 7+ GW (Gigawatt) solar portfolio in development.

We anticipate the solar farm being able to supply the electricity needs of approximately 25,000 homes a year. This will supply an area over 40 times the size of Hurley.

The clean energy generated will save on average 21,000 tonnes of CO2 per year, which adds up to over 800,000 tonnes of CO2 over the next 40 years.

Biodiversity is important to us and we are exploring opportunities for ecological enhancements and creating new habitats.

Community consultation

The public consultation on our proposals has now closed, and we are carefully considering all the feedback we received as we finalise our proposal for the project.

We will provide an update to the community and stakeholders before submitting our planning application in the coming months. A Statement of Community Involvement detailing how the consultation has been carried out and how feedback to the consultation has been considered will also be submitted as part of our planning application.

Ampyr Solar Europe is a highly experienced developer and operator of solar and battery storage projects.

Their vision is to become a leading European independent solar power producer, dedicated to helping communities and companies achieve their sustainability objectives by providing them with clean solar energy.
