TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING, WALES

These Regulations amend the Developments of National Significance (Specified Criteria and Prescribed Secondary Consents) (Wales) Regulations 2016 (“the Principal Regulations”). The Principal Regulations provide that the construction of an onshore wind generating station (an onshore wind farm) with a generating capacity of between 10 and 50 megawatts is of national significance for the purposes of section 62D of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990. They also provide that the extension or alteration of an onshore wind farm is of national significance if the effect of the extension or alteration will increase the generating capacity by at least 10 megawatts but not so that the installed generating capacity exceeds 50 megawatts.
