The Department of Energy and Net Zero published a consultation on a proposed approach to siting fusion energy facilities earlier in May.  The accompanying Appraisal of Sustainability puts the draft planning approach in the context of WHO noise guidelines and the Noise Policy Statement England.  If agreed,  this would be a new NPS 8, in the suite of National Policy Statements for planning for major infrastructure that cover England and Wales. The consultation is open until July 3rd.
