Planning for new energy infrastructure: 2025 revisions to National Policy Statements

June 2, 2025

Following Peta Donkin giving evidence on behalf of NIPA to the Commons Energy Security and Net Zero Committee earlier in May, on 29 May we provided our consultation response to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero on the proposed changes to the energy infrastructure National Policy Statements (EN-1, EN-3 and EN-5).  This is available here.

The Policy and Practice Working Group would like to thank members for their time and valued contributions. 

There are now opportunities for members to help formulate NIPA’s responses to recently-launched government consultations in relation to biodiversity net gain and community benefits. If you are keen to get involved, please let us know by emailing info@nipa-uk.org and our Policy and Practice working group leads, Peta Donkin and David Grattan, will be in touch!
