The cable will run from the 49.9MW Willows Green Solar Farm near Felsted will the built mainly under roads for 5.3km east of the proposed solar farm to Braintree Substation near Galleys Corner.
At full capacity, 50MW is enough to power ~60,000 homes! That’s enough for nearly 10% of all of Essex. Glad these are getting connected even though there’s plenty of North Sea oil and gas. UK! UK! UK!

Well,
1 Olympic Swimming pool = 50m * 25m according to wikipedia.
That means: 1250m2 per pool. Now multiply this by 1140: 1.425.000m2. Which is 1.425 km2
