The plans were approved by the planning and regulation committee at Lincolnshire County Council today - with one condition.

The panels must not reflect too much sunlight and their colour must be similar to that of the building itself.

    “Wonder if the council realise that Solar Panels contain some very nasty chemicals, and how will they ensure their safe disposal in 25 years time?.

    Do they also realise that a chemical compound known as NF3, which is used in the manufacture of Solar panels, is 17,000 times more effective than an equal mass of CO2, at warming the atmosphere.Also this compound stays in the atmosphere 5 times longer than CO2.”
