Energy generation in new developments

Policy GDP/3 of the North Somerset Replacement Local Plan requires proposals for new dwellings and other types of developments to demonstrate how the building has been designed to minimise its energy requirements.

In addition policy GDP/3 requires 15% of the energy requirements of all new dwellings and other developments of 1000m2 or more to be provided through the use of microrenewable or low carbon technologies on site.

Following a consultation exercise which ended 30 May 2008 we have prepared detailed guidance of how this policy will be interpreted and implemented.
