A 44-year-old man described as Prince William’s friend and the godfather of Prince Louis is involved in a dispute with local residents over plans to lease land on his Buckinghamshire estate for a biogas project. Reports say he has agreed to allow Acorn Bioenergy to use part of his Hornage Farm property.
The proposal would involve leasing about 15 acres to build what is described as England’s largest biogas-to-grid digestion plant. The reports also say there is opposition from some locals, who raise concerns about the development.
Across the sources, the core details are consistent: the land involved is in Buckinghamshire at Hornage Farm, Acorn Bioenergy is the proposed operator, and the development is intended to generate electricity from biogas. The differing emphasis is mainly in how the outlets frame the individuals involved and the nature of local objections, rather than the underlying plan.
