Yes, insofar as it relates to electricity generation.
Experience with an application for a bio-digestion, (claimed to be producing renewable energy, gas) leads to the recommendation for wording of D to be more explicit. Furthermore for biomass an application should only be submitted and validated once the proposal has been assessed and confirmed as a renewable [gas] production facility by a suitable independent body eg the renewable accreditation body. This ensures that:
1 Considerable time is not wasted assessing the proposal against planning policy criteria
2 the LPA can justify any carbon reduction claims without further examination and cost
