At DWD our Infrastructure and Energy consenting practice has
long-held expertise in the large-scale planning sector, for both
traditional and renewable energy.
While originally securing consents for clients under Section 36 of
the Electricity Act, we now have unrivalled experience in the
Development Consent Order (DCO) process for Energy and Net
Zero related Nationally Significant Infrastructure Projects.
We are often instructed at the very start of the process, assisting
clients in structuring their teams to successfully deliver NSIP
planning, using our experience across a wide range of different
projects, and continue to advise throughout the preparation and
submission of the application. This ranges from advice on
consultation, programme, policy and process to internal
governance.
This paper provides an insight into how Net Zero is being delivered
through the DCO regime. It is something that the DWD team are
seeing first-hand as we continue to work on new DCO projects.
