Renewable Energy Scoping and Feasibility Study for Sheffield

Sheffield City Council appointed IT Power to carry out a renewable energy scoping and feasibility study for the city.  The purpose of the study was to ascertain Sheffield’s potential for renewable energy generation, and to provide guidance on how the city can meet and exceed its share of the regional renewable energy targets.
 
The study comprises an assessment of the potential for both large-scale generation and microgeneration, examining a variety of technologies in turn.  It also contains guidance for development control to help with determining planning applications.
 
The annexes below are separate from the main document due to the size of the files. 
 
Please see supporting documents and peer review pages, for further background information on renewable energy technologies and planning.
