Co-location of Renewable and Low Carbon Technologies

Co-location of renewable and low carbon technologies and supporting infrastructure should be facilitated. Stakeholders are encouraged to explore opportunities for harnessing renewable energy from new and existing developments to meet local energy demands.

Co-location of renewable and low carbon technologies and supporting infrastructure has potential benefits and should be facilitated, where appropriate. Furthermore, councils, developers, and other stakeholders are encouraged to explore more widely the opportunities for harnessing renewable and low carbon energy from new and extant developments where this can help to meet the energy demands of neighbouring land uses in the locality.
