About
The Scottish Government awarded a contract to Ironside Farrar for the preparation of draft guidance on planning for Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).
The guidance aims to support Planning Authorities in handling BESS applications, increase clarity for developers, and promote more consistent decision-making.
It will also address community concerns, particularly regarding cumulative development proposals, and provide best practice advice for developers, including at the pre-application stage.
The National Planning Hub will oversee the preparation and rollout of the guidance as part of a wider package of interventions to support the planning system.
