Essentially, the relaxation of the planning rules means that battery storage projects above 50MW in England, and 350MW in Wales can now go ahead without needing to be approved through the national planning regime. The planning regime previously treated storage projects as ‘energy generation’ where projects over. . It means that most electricity storage projects, with the exception of pumped hydro schemes, can be determined through the Town and. . Previously, many developers sought to limit projects to 50MW to avoid the lengthy NSIP process, which also impacts on generation projects that are to be co-located with the storage. The change in the law should make it. . PWA Planning has a dedicated energy planningteam that can provide a wide range of services to providers looking to progress planning. . For developers, investors and landowners, this is great news, and we would encourage them to speak to their planning consultants and other professional advisors to understand more about how the changes can benefit.

It means that most electricity storage projects, with the exception of pumped hydro schemes, can be determined through the Town and Country Planning Act, by local planning authorities. In effect this means that planning applications for projects over 50MW should, theoretically, be decided in between eight and 13 weeks depending on their size.
Planning law in the UK has been changed to allow energy storage projects over 50MW to come on line without going through the national planning process. This could pave the way for a major expansion of battery storage facilities across our towns and cities, to support green energy use in new builds and to balance our energy demand.
The change in the law should make it much easier for energy storage schemes to get planning permission, to attract funding more easily, and enable them to be built more quickly. The recent UK Battery Storage Project Database Report by suggested the UK has more than 13.5GW of battery storage projects in the pipeline.
Energy companies and battery storage developers in the UK can now bypass the national planning process when developing large scale energy storage projects, thanks to a recent change in the law.
The changes to planning legislation for larger energy storage projects were first announced back in October 2019 to allow planning applications to be determined without going through the Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project (NSIP) process.
There is currently 4 GW of storage projects in planning which could power a combined 6 million homes, in addition to the 1 GW of battery storage already in operation. View the government response to the Planning system for electricity storage: follow up consultation

Two new photovoltaic parks are currently (August 2024) under construction in Western Macedonia with a total capacity of 1,000MW. This new energy project is carried out by Greece's in a joint venture with RWE Renewables Europe & Australia. Both of these parks are expected to commence operations in 2025. In addition, a new photovoltaic park in Thessaly of a total capacity of 390MW is under design (as of August 2024) [pdf]
Avlona is another solar project that revolves around photovoltaic power. A town in the Athens metropolitan area, Avlona’s normal summer climate allows for opportunities for solar power to thrive. The solar plant holds a power capacity of 0.6MWP, and is normally credited for being a promising source of energy for Greece’s capital city.
As we delve into the 20 projects and farms involved in solar energy, one will see how Greece is striving to make solar-powered homes and places a reality: Oropos is one of the largest solar installations in Attica, Greece. With the power capacity of 400 KWP, this solar project is ground-mounted, and split into four installations.
In addition, the two projects will boost renewable energy production by 8 percent compared to 2020 levels. The storage units in both projects will help decouple electricity dispatch from production, thereby mitigating the intermittent nature of solar power and enhancing the stability of the Greek electricity grid, it added.
Of the total global Solar PV capacity, 0.45% is in Greece. Listed below are the five largest upcoming Solar PV power plants by capacity in Greece, according to GlobalData’s power plants database. GlobalData uses proprietary data and analytics to provide a complete picture of the global Solar PV power segment.
In 2022, solar power accounted for 12.6% of total electricity generation in Greece, up from 0.3% in 2010 and less than 0.1% in 2000. The national government's 2023 National Energy & Climate Plan anticipates solar PV capacity rising from 4.8 GW in 2022 to 14.1 GW in 2030, and 34.5 GW in 2050.
Solar PV capacity accounted for 13.0% of total power plant installations globally in 2022, according to GlobalData, with total recorded solar pv capacity of 1,109GW. This is expected to contribute 30% by the end of 2030 with capacity of installations aggregating up to 4,002GW. Of the total global Solar PV capacity, 0.45% is in Greece.
