DECC publishes methodology for renewable and low-carbon capacity assessment
12 October 2010
To help ensure a robust evidence base to support the deployment of renewable energy, DECC has published a renewable and low-carbon capacity assessment methodology (PDF, 547Kb). The evidence produced by applying the methodology will help to support local authorities and communities to make the most of opportunities for renewable energy deployment in their areas. DECC has provided funding to support the application of the methodology across the whole of England.
Some of these assessments have now been completed and their findings published, including for the North West, Yorkshire & Humber, South East, London, South West, West Midlands, East Midlands, East of England and North East.
