A Planning Application is under consideration by Walsall Council for a “Battery Energy Storage System” next to the Duckery at Chapel Lane on Green Belt . If the Application is granted 28 battery units, each 2.3m tall, would be built on  land  that is agricultural land and has been used to grow Rape Seed. This is in addition to the threat of over 5000 houses being built on the Walsall Green Belt as part of the Draft Black Country Plan.
