6 GW
As a responsible developer, DRD is progressing an approximate 6 gigawatt (GW) pipeline of projects across the UK helping to deliver a low-carbon energy future for the country. DRD’s approach is to own, develop and manage these projects throughout their full lifecycle, rather than selling to a third party operator once development consent has been granted.
Meridian Solar
For Meridian Solar, this means Meridian Solar Farm Limited would be responsible for the Scheme during the pre-application, construction and operational stages, as well as during its decommissioning. This approach ensures Meridian Solar Farm Limited develops the best Scheme possible, including through consultation on the proposals with local stakeholders and communities.
