# The Sunnica Energy Farm Order 2024, Paragraph 157: Alternative apparatus

Extent: E+W

(1) Where, in accordance with the provisions of this Part of this Schedule, Sunnica affords to SSW facilities and rights for the construction and maintenance in land of Sunnica of alternative apparatus in substitution for apparatus to be removed, those facilities and rights are to be granted upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed between Sunnica and SSW or in default of agreement settled by arbitration in accordance with article 38 (arbitration).
(2) In settling those terms and conditions in respect of alternative apparatus to be constructed within 6 metres of any existing apparatus of SSW, the arbitrator must—
(a) give effect to all reasonable requirements of SSW for ensuring the protection of the existing apparatus and for securing any subsequent alterations or adaptations of the alternative apparatus which may be required to prevent interference with the existing apparatus; and
(b) so far as it may be reasonable and practicable to do so in the circumstances of the particular case, give effect to the terms and conditions, if any, applicable to the existing apparatus for which the alternative apparatus is to be substituted.
(3) If the facilities and rights to be afforded by Sunnica in respect of any alternative apparatus, and the terms and conditions subject to which those facilities and rights are to be granted, are in the opinion of the arbitrator less favourable on the whole to SSW than the facilities and rights enjoyed by SSW in respect of the apparatus to be removed and the terms and conditions to which those facilities and rights are subject, the arbitrator must make such provision for the payment of compensation by Sunnica to SSW as appears to the arbitrator to be reasonable having regard to all the circumstances of the particular case.
