DP31: Energy infrastructure

  1. Developments within heat network priority areas should be designed to facilitate cost-effective connections to the existing or proposed network in accordance with the London Plan.
  2. In designated heat network priority areas, proposals for the development of decentralised energy network infrastructure and related apparatus, including the use of low carbon technology, will be supported.
  3. Proposals for major developments that produce heat and/or energy should consider how they can contribute to the supply heat in a designated heat network priority area or demonstrate that this is not technically feasible or economically viable.
