The 56 pole-mounted CCTV cameras around the 34-acre perimeter will be coated green to minimise visual effect

- by ALISON STEPHENSON Local Democracy Reporter @DevonLiveNews

A RENEWABLE energy company wants to install 56 pole-mounted CCTV cameras around the perimeter of its 34-acre solar farm in Torridge to reduce theft and vandalism.

Sunsave 12 Ltd says the system at Derriton Field/ Tamar Solar Farm will improve security and enhance the safety of staff.

It comes after a recent break-in at the site in Pyworthy, near Holsworthy, which is known for its high number of solar farms.

When Derriton Field was granted planning consent for around 49,000 solar panels in 2013 it was the fourth of its kind in the village and was expected to power around 12,000 homes.
