Could your land host a solar farm?

Find your land, and we'll read the data on it.

  • Planning constraints on the field
  • Spare capacity, and a line to tee into
  • What a 30-year lease could pay

Where is it?

Your land

Search your postcode, zoom in, then draw around your field edges. The acreage fills in as you draw.

Tap each corner of your field, then tap the first point again to finish. Add more fields the same way.

Where shall we send the answer?

For example EX1 1AA, or ///filled.count.soap for a gateway.
A rough figure is fine. Drawing your land below fills this in exactly.

The answer appears on this page in seconds. No cost, no obligation, and nobody rings you first.

Read live from the government's planning data, the network operators' published capacity and DESNZ's register of decided schemes.

What it reads

Three questions, answered from public data.

The same screen we run on our own sites, pointed at your field. Nothing is guessed: every line names where it came from and the date it was published.

  1. Screen

    What is on the land.

    National Parks, flood risk, farmland quality, wildlife, ancient woodland and heritage — read from the government’s own planning data for the field you draw.

  2. Connect

    Where the power could land.

    The nearest substation with published spare capacity — how far, how much, and the date the operator published it — how much of your field that capacity would actually take, and the nearest 33 kV or 132 kV line you could tee into instead.

  3. Worth

    What it could pay.

    An indicative rent range over a 30-year lease — on the acres that could connect today, not just on the whole field — and how many solar farms your council has actually approved since 2015.

No catch

It takes about a minute, and it costs nothing.

You get the same answer we would work out for ourselves before we looked at a site. If it reads badly, that's useful too — you'll know, and you won't hear from us again unless you ask.
