Onshore wind energy planning conditions guidance note: a report for the Renewables Advisory Board and BERR

URN No: 06/1818

Although existing planning guidance provides advice specific to the use of conditions in many forms of development, there is currently no specific guidance relating to planning conditions for wind energy development.

The aim of the Onshore Wind Energy Planning Conditions Guidance Note, available via the link below and under 'Related Documents', is to provide advice on the appropriate types of planning conditions relevant to wind energy development.  This advice incorporates information already present within existing planning guidance, provides additional advice regarding the use of planning conditions and outlines generic conditions for use in wind energy developments.
