A SOLAR farm will be built on land at a school in Merthyr Tydfil, providing electricity to local schools and a hospital.

The application from the council for Pen y Dre High School in Gurnos includes a 1.4 MegaWatt (MW) solar farm on land to the east of the school buildings and to the north and east of the replacement Goetre Primary School which is currently under construction.
The proposal, approved by planning committee on May 7, will also involve the installation of underground cables from the site to provide electricity to Pen Y Dre High School, the new Goetre Primary School, Bishop Hedley School and Prince Charles Hospital.
It will involve an array of solar panels from east to west across the site.
