What the petition asks
The development of BESS sites are becoming increasingly common. Private Developers are purchasing Greenbelt land, frequently this is farming land within a community, to install these, this practice must be halted.
With the massive infrastructure projects currently underway within the United Kingdom, these would provide much more practicable locations to house these 'Battery Farms', or possibly even 'Brownfield' sites.
