Overview

"Solar energy development is about to be very big. The support for large scale solar energy development at a national level and in emerging government policy is unequivocal and is set to continue. It is a position that has led to a significant increase in the number of very large scale projects in the planning system in recent times with the inevitable need for the input of planning professionals, lawyers, and a wide range of experts including heritage, landscape and ecology professionals. This book is intended to provide a short and practical guide to the law and policy relevant to solar energy development, and the different routes to achieving planning consent. It addresses common issues that arise in respect of this type of project, from scheme design and amendment to post consent, and reflects on recent decisions for large scale solar projects. It is intended to provide an introduction to solar energy development for planning practitioners across all disciplines, and it may also be of use to other stakeholders in the process such as councillors and local interest groups.
