Action Programme 5

Energy (E)

The potential for renewable energy generation on the Manhood Peninsula generated a high degree of support. This programme recognises the opportunity for energy self-sufficiency on the Peninsula, through small-scale generation on private and commercial property, and through the potential to harness wind and wave on a larger scale. There is also an emphasis on addressing the challenge of private ‘retro-fit’ for existing properties, both in terms of planning policy and cost-benefit.
