ELECTRICITY, ENGLAND AND WALES

These Regulations apply to applications to the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry for consent under section 36 of the Electricity Act 1989 (“the 1989 Act”) to construct, extend or operate an offshore generating station, defined as a generating station located either within the Renewable Energy Zone (save for those waters where Scottish Ministers have functions) or within waters in or adjacent to England and Wales between the mean low water mark and the seaward limits of the territorial sea. For the purposes of these Regulations a reference to an application for consent under section 36 includes any application under section 36A of the 1989 Act for a declaration relating to public rights of navigation, which is made with the section 36 application.
