Solar Power: Fire and Rescue Services
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what level of fire service coverage solar farm applications are required to have in order to be approved as Nationally Significant Infrastructure Projects.
Answered by Michael Shanks
Fire service coverage is considered during the examination and determination of any Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project. It is for the applicant to demonstrate satisfactorily that this issue has been addressed, which will include the view of the relevant fire service, Local Authority, and health and safety experts.
