Received: 22 December 2025
I am researching solar photovoltaic (PV) development and wish to make the following request under the Freedom of Information Act. Q1 On land and building assets that are owned or controlled* by the authority, how much solar PV capacity in kilowatt peak (kWp) has been installed?(*"controlled" means where the authority has management control of a site's facilities and utilities, such as under a long-term lease)I would like the response for this to be separated into four categories:*Solar PV capacity owned by the authority:*Solar PV capacity owned by a community group:*Solar PV capacity owned by another party, that is not a community group, where a power purchase agreement (PPA) exists to supply the authority:*Any other solar PV capacity owned by another party:If an exact figure for installed solar PV in kWp cannot be obtained, please make an estimate of a minimum value that is known with confidence. For example, 'estimated - at least 100kWp'. Q2 This question asks for information about procurement of solar PV goods and services in the past three years, where a contract has been awarded between 1 January 2023 and the date of this request. Could you supply me with the following information please: I have also put Q2 into an Excel template (attached to this email). Please use this to return to me, if possible.
