@guigsy 6 times? That’s good to know. I was trying to work out how to calculate that. My gut feeling was that biofuels made more inefficient use of land than solar. Thanks.

It's worth pointing out that the UK uses 2.2% of arable land for biofuel (as of 2024) but only 0.3% for solar farms. I don't think solar farms are necessarily more industrial than biofuels.
I'm happy to be put right if I've misunderstood.
