Why do we need Greener Grid Parks?

Project timeline

  • Stage 1: Site Selection

    Extensive research to identify suitable sites. 

    No public engagement is carried out during this time because the site may not pass the criteria required for being suitable for development.

  • Stage 2: Pre-Planning

    We request the view of Wealden District Council on the level of study required. We contact local elected representatives and consultees such as Ninfield Parish Council.

  • Stage 3: Planning Application Consented

    Planning consent is secured, having been granted in 2022 by Wealden District Council. Development works commenced on site in June 2025 to discharge the planning conditions, including upgrades to the access track from the public highway.

  • Stage 4: Construction

    If the project is approved, construction typically takes 18 months. Planning conditions are used to manage elements of construction.

  • Stage 5: Operation

    The project is managed by a regionally based maintenance team, and operations are controlled by detailed planning conditions.
