A concise report is required which sets out the findings of the desk-based study using clear overviews and schedules. The main purpose of the desk-based study is to inform the consortium on the planning and permitting aspects of the hub and to provide insight into the following:
Relevant international and European treaties, regulations and directives and their specific implementation
- Relevant national planning and permitting regimes, including competent authorities, procedures and procedure time lines
- An overview of the implications of these consenting regimes for the project locations, configurations and technologies listed above
- The information required for relevant planning and permitting applications
- Specific national points of attention, e.g. known legal constraints and obstacles or specific
- procedural risks and requirements.
