NEWSNational Policy Statement on Fossil Fuel Electricity Generating Infrastructure (EN2)
Key issues are:
• Approximately 60 Gigawatts (GW) (net) of new electricity-generating capacity is required by 2025, a large proportion of which is to come from fossil fuel power stations.
• All new fossil fuel power stations are required to include provision to allow Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) measures to be deployed in due course, i.e. be Carbon Capture Ready (CCR).
• Any new coal fired power station must include a demonstration CCS facility that will extract the CO2 from the equivalent of 300 Megawatts (MW) of electricity.
• The granting of a Development Consent Order by the Infrastructure Planning Commission (IPC) for a proposal covered by the NPS replaces the need to seek consent under Section 36 of the Electricity Act 1989.
Responses to the document are invited by 22nd February 2010. Turley Associates welcome the opportunity to make representations on behalf of clients, or to discuss how the National Policy Statements for Energy Infrastructure might affect specific interests.
