Paragraph 26 Combined heat and powerI1
England, Wales and Scotland
Work No. 1A must not be brought into commercial use following commissioning until the relevant planning authority has given notice that it is satisfied that the undertaker has allowed for space within the design of the authorised development for the later provision of heat pass-outs for off-site users of process or space heating and its later connection to such systems, should they be identified and commercially viable.
The undertaker must maintain such space during the operation of the authorised development unless otherwise agreed with the relevant planning authority.
On the date that is 12 months after Work No. 1A is first brought into commercial use following commissioning, the undertaker must submit to the planning authority for its approval a report (‘the CHP review’) updating the CHP assessment.
The CHP review submitted and approved must—
consider the opportunities that reasonably exist for the export of heat from the authorised development at the time of submission and which are economically viable; and
include a list of actions (if any) that the undertaker is reasonably to take (including with regard to cost to the undertaker) to increase the potential for the export of heat from the authorised development.
The undertaker must take such actions as are included, within the timescales specified, in the approved CHP review unless otherwise agreed with the relevant planning authority.
On each date during the operation of Work No. 1A that is four years after the date on which it last submitted the CHP review or a revised CHP review to the relevant planning authority, the undertaker must submit to the relevant planning authority for its approval a revised CHP review.
Sub-paragraphs (4) and (5) apply in relation to a revised CHP review submitted under sub- paragraph (6) in the same way as they apply in relation to the CHP review submitted under sub- paragraph (3).
