Regulations on the use of industrial land for energy storage power stations

Are electricity storage facilities a generating station?

In the planning regime electricity storage facilities are treated as a form of generating station and prior to this legislation coming into force were subject to the 50MW capacity threshold for the Nationally Significant Infrastructure Projects regime.

Can land rights and consents be used to build electricity network infrastructure?

The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy is seeking information on the role of land rights and consents in the build of electricity network infrastructure, in the context of the transition to an energy system that can deliver net zero and meets our energy security objectives.

Will electricity storage facilities be removed from NSIP?

The Infrastructure Planning (Electricity Storage Facilities) Order 2020 has been laid to remove electricity storage facilities (except pumped hydro) from the NSIP regime in England and Wales.

How will the infrastructure planning (electricity storage facilities) order 2020 impact business?

“The Infrastructure Planning (Electricity Storage Facilities) Order 2020 and this instrument’s annualised net impact on business is an estimated net £1.5 million equivalent annualised direct savings, below the indicative £5 million threshold for significant impacts.

Why do we need a 'Si' for electricity storage?

This SI is needed to ensure that electricity storage facilities (except pumped hydro storage) fall to be consented by local planning authorities rather than s.36 of the Electricity Act 1989.

Are land rights affecting electricity network infrastructure projects?

Government understands that, in some cases, costs and delays as a result of land rights and consenting processes can hinder or prevent electricity network infrastructure projects from going ahead.
