WELCOME

This project website relates to a proposed solar park development on land at Houston Road, Inchinnan. We are keen to gain the views of the community and local stakeholders and we would welcome any feedback you may have on the proposed development. The applicant will be Mactaggart & Mickel Investments Ltd.

Solar power is one source of renewable energy which has an important role to play as part of the mix of energy sources required to meet national energy targets, in particular the Scottish Government’s target of achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2045. The solar farm has the potential to significantly contribute towards these national targets and to make a considerable difference in reducing national CO2 emissions.

The site at Houston Road is not subject to statutory pre-application consultation due to the size and scale of development proposed. However, the project team has elected to create a project website in order to share the proposals for the development of the site with stakeholders and members of the public.

This website provides further information about the proposal and the benefits it will bring. Any feedback and comments can be provided throughout this period by email to inchinnansolarpark@iceniprojects.com.

Please note that comments made at this time are not representations to the Planning Authority. The planning application was submitted to Renfrewshire Council on 12th August 2022 and there will be an opportunity to make formal representations regarding the proposed development directly to Renfrewshire Council once the application has been validated.
