We support the reference in the policy to the Councils encouraging the use and development of decentralised energy systems with large scale development. However, this should also be a key matter in the selection of development allocations. Priority should be given to those sites that can incorporate large scale renewable energy provision in determining which employment sites should be included within the Plan.

As referred to in our Call for Sites submission in relation to SG02 – Stoneleigh Park Employment Group, the Stoneleigh Park and Kingswood Business Park proposal incorporates a large area dedicated to renewable energy generation.

Renewable and sustainable (not sure there is a difference) are by their nature intermittent - e.g. a still (or very windy) day..
What is needed is a nationally planned base energy provision which means the grid is never running nearly flat out.

Yes, supportive of the principle of protecting large-scale renewable energy infrastructure, particularly given the NHS’s own Net Zero ambitions. If an NHS site is adjacent to existing renewable energy infrastructure, it will be important to ensure that hospital expansion or other healthcare developments are not unintentionally restricted.

If renewable schemes are in operation or have planning permission, their operating function should not be jepordised otherwise further land will be taken up with additional projects.

A separate response was submitted by the MOD specifically related to the MOD Safeguarding concerns:

Within the Draft Policy D: Large Scale Renewable Energy Generation and Storage, the MOD notes
and welcomes the provision for Solar-Based and Wind-Based Energy Development. Wind energy
section 6.6 identifies. “Wind energy developments must minimise and/or mitigate amenity and
environmental impacts, including to: g) Avoid or adequately mitigate shadow flicker, noise and
adverse impact on air traffic operations, radar and air navigational installations; and. i) Ensure safety
in relation to the distance to power lines and buildings, the impact on air traffic, Ministry of Defence
operations, weather radar and the strategic road network.”
The MOD has, in principle, no objection to any renewable energy development, though some
infrastructure enabling renewable energy production, for example wind turbine generators can, by virtue
of their physical dimensions and properties, impact upon military aviation activities, cause obstruction to
protected critical airspace surrounding military aerodromes, or impede the operation of safeguarded
defence technical installations.
Where turbines are erected in line of sight to defence radars and other types of defence technical
installations, the rotating motion of their blades can degrade and cause interference to the effective
operation of these types of installations potentially resulting in detriment to aviation safety and operational
capability. This potential is recognised in the Government’s online Planning Practice Guidance which
contains, within the Renewable and Low Carbon Energy section, specific guidance that both
developers and Local Planning Authorities should consult the MOD where a proposed turbine has a
tip height of, or exceeding 11m, and/or has a rotor diameter of, or exceeding 2m.
Additionally, it may be necessary in certain circumstances for MOD to require the removal of permitted
development rights, where the use of these rights introduces elements that would not be compatible with
MOD safeguarding requirements

Presumably what we are talking about here is overshading of solar systems by adjacent developments or creating wind shadows by building something next to a wind turbine. Might be helpful to be explicit about this?

At the same time, the non-harm criteria are possibly a bit dangerously broad! All renewable assets degrade (slowly). I wouldn’t like to see lawyers doing well out of arguments that Mrs Smith’s shed in an adjacent field would cause 2% less income for a solar or wind farm next door farm?

Also, the DNO runs the network and will need to develop it over the next 20 years. This will affect availability and performance of generators. Should they be exempt from this requirement, or is there a risk of a planning policy that is unenforceable or contradicts national regulations?
