EDF Energy Renewables has submitted supplementary environmental information to Torridge District Council in support of its planning application for the proposed Hollow Panson wind farm.

The company originally submitted an application for a six-turbine, 12MW wind farm on the site east of the A388, between Launceston and Holsworthy, last December.

EDF Energy Renewables held various public consultations, but many local people are objecting to the wind farm on environmental grounds, as previously reported in the Post.

The council asked for clarification on a number of environmental issues raised during the consultation period.

In response, EDF Energy Renewables has submitted a series of new technical reports.

An EDF spokesperson said: "The new information includes revised noise assessments to address issues raised by the council's noise consultant.
