A local construction group has issued a legal warning to energy giants and state entities over claims of unauthorised use of more than 570 acres of land earmarked for the region’s largest solar farm.

Attorney Peter Taylor, representing Morvant Building and Construction Co Ltd (MBCCL), NB Real Estate Co Ltd and Addis Building and Maintenance Services Ltd, sent a pre-action protocol letter to Brechin Castle Solar Farm Ltd, the National Gas Company, BP Alternative Energy T&T Ltd and Shell TT.

The letter alleges the group has "demonstrably better and superior title" to the lands for the proposed solar farm.
