Conclusion
We welcome the review of the NPS for energy which updates the planning framework for Nationally Significant Infrastructure Projects in line with the Government’s policy commitments as set out in the Energy White Paper. In doing so, it should help provide the energy infrastructure required to deliver the Government’s net zero target. In order to achieve this, we have made a number of recommendations for further amendments to the revised (draft) NPS in this report, before the revised NPS is laid before Parliament.
