What Infrastructure is Required for Wind Energy
A wind energy development is likely to include the requirement for other infrastructure, including:
- Access roads
- Onsite tracks
- Wind monitoring mast (temporary)
- Substation
- Control building
- Crane hardstandings
- Electric cabling
- Construction compound (temporary)
Some of this infrastructure is permanent and some is temporary and used for the construction period only.
Details of all necessary infrastructure required for a given wind energy development are included in the planning application.
