Wind Resource and Radar Clearance
The ‘golden thread’ of sustainable development ‘Encourage multiple benefits from the use of land in urban and rural areas, recognising that some open land can perform many functions (such as for wildlife, recreation, flood risk mitigation, carbon storage or food production’ (para 17). ‘To help increase the use and supply of renewable and low carbon energy, local planning authorities should recognise the responsibility on all communities to contribute to energy generation from renewable or low carbon sources. They should: • identify opportunities where development can draw its energy supply from
decentralised, renewable or low carbon energy supply systems and for co-locating potential heat consumers and suppliers’ (para 97).
