In response to the draft National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), Lichfields has set out an approach to plan-making aimed at improving alignment between planning, grid capacity and delivery timescales for energy infrastructure<\/h2>\n

As national planning policy places greater weight on renewable, low-carbon and energy storage development, attention is turning to how Local Plans support delivery in practice.<\/p>\n

Lichfield\u2019s Advanced Energy Group says policy support for energy infrastructure is now well established. The challenge lies in how Local Plans identify, assess and safeguard sites in a way that reflects grid connection opportunities and realistic delivery programmes.<\/p>\n

Using a targeted, Integrated Allocation model to identify sites<\/h3>\n

Lichfields\u2019 suggested approach is being termed an Integrated Energy Allocation model, under which Local Plans would assess specific energy sites through a targeted call for sites submission exercise rather than relying on broad areas of search. Sites would be put forward accompanied by proportionate, parameters-based evidence, allowing physical scale and environmental effects to be examined in the Plan-making process without fixing detailed layouts or technology at that early stage.<\/p>\n

Where accepted through Local Plan examination, sites would be allocated for energy infrastructure and safeguarded from incompatible development. Detailed specification would be approved later, closer to construction, reflecting grid connection timing and technological change. The approach would sit alongside continued policy support for energy proposals on non-allocated sites where capacity becomes available.<\/p>\n

The plan could help reduce planning permission backlogs for much-needed energy infrastructure<\/h3>\n

Anthony Greally, senior director and advanced energy lead at Lichfields, said: \u201cThe draft NPPF gives clear support to renewable energy development and energy infrastructure<\/a>, but the Local Plan process could play a much more effective role in its delivery. Our ideas might be somewhat radical and would require changes to legislation alongside changes to the Plan-making process, but they are worthy of further consideration. The ultimate goal is a Local Plan process that better reflects how energy developers identify sites, and how projects are connected, financed and delivered.<\/p>\n

\u201cProviding earlier certainty through a planning permission in principle, and not just a site allocation, while deferring detailed design, could reduce unnecessary early applications. For such a system to work, however, would require NESO to regard these allocations in the same way it does a traditional planning permission when it awards grid connection dates.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Integrated Energy Allocation model has been published as a discussion paper<\/a> to inform debate on how planning can better support the delivery of energy storage and wider energy infrastructure.<\/p>\n
