The facility would include up to 50 energy storage containers, an electrical control building, transformers, switchgear, landscaping, and access on land adjacent to the substation. The CNPA Planning Committee is asked to note the PAN and pre-application advice given, and to provide any additional comments. The document also outlines the background to the proposal, the CNPA's officer advice, and the key land use planning issues raised during the pre-application process, such as landscape impacts, environmental impacts, safe access, and the role of the proposal in the wider energy network.
