Dear Liam Porter

Thank you for your request for information with regards to Wind, Solar and Energy Project MW/Size, which we received on the 8th of January 2024.

Your request
Further to my existing Freedom of Information Request sent on 3rd January 2024 concerning planning permission for wind, solar and battery projects, I would like to request the following information;
Please provide a list of approved and not approved wind, solar and battery projects indicating MW/size for each project.

Our response
We do not store this information in an accessible format, however you could access information via our online planning register. On the left of the screen choose Planning Search then Standard Search. Using the proposal field enter relevant search criteria such as solar and the Decision Between dates.

This will generate a list of applications that match your criteria and you will then be able to look at the detail of each if required. This search will be limited in that it will only return applications where the applicant / agent has mentioned the specific word in the proposal.

Any information regarding MW/size of project would be contained in the individual Final Report which can be found in the Documents tab of the application.

If you are dissatisfied with the handling of your request, you have the right to ask for an internal review. Internal review requests should be submitted within two months of the date of receipt of the response to your original letter and should be addressed to:
c/o The Monitoring Officer - [email address]
or by post to The Monitoring Officer, Civic Offices, Holton Road, Barry, CF63 4RU.

If you are not content with the outcome of the internal review, you have the right to apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a decision.

The Information Commissioner can be contacted at:

Second Floor, Churchill House
Churchill Way,
Cardiff
