Preferred Strategy

Representation ID: 27652

Received: 29/08/2019

Respondent: Welsh Government

Representation Summary:

A large proportion of the authority is within Priority Areas 3 & 15 for Solar and Wind Energy in the draft NDF. On this basis the Authority should ensure that it is in general conformity with the NDF when adopted. The LPA has prepared a Renewable Energy Assessment (REA) in line with the WG Toolkit Methodology which concludes there are no suitable wind or solar Local Search Areas (LSAs). The Council has allocated the SSA within its area, and is proposing to allocate Land at Gofer for a 4MW PV solar array.

Our response:

Noted. The NDF detail wasn't available at the time of preparing the Preferred Strategy and the identified areas are not available as data as WG cannot release it in draft form. Text and designations will be amended to reflect national guidance when finalised and clarity will be added regarding the integration of the REA recommendations.
