REPRESENTATION BY HORIZON NUCLEAR POWER WYLFA LIMITED TO THE “North Wales Connection Project”.
Please accept this as Horizon Nuclear Power Wylfa Limited’s (Horizon) Relevant Representation on National Grid’s proposed North Wales Connection Project (the ‘Connection Project’).
Horizon has submitted a Development Consent Order (DCO) to secure consent for the construction, operation and maintenance of an onshore generating station and other Associated Development, at Wylfa, Anglesey, Wales (Wylfa Newydd Nuclear Power Station).
The Wylfa Newydd Nuclear Power Station application was “accepted” by the Planning Inspectorate for examination on 29th June 2018. The Preliminary Meeting was held on 23rd October 2018, with the examination phase commencing 24th October 2018. The examination is due to close on or before 23rd April 2019.
The Wylfa Newydd Nuclear Power Station will be capable of generating up to 3.1GWe (3,100MWe), which will be exported to the national high voltage transmission network operated by National Grid Electricity Transmission plc (National Grid). National Grid and Horizon have entered into a Bilateral Connection Agreement and Construction Agreement. Under these agreements, National Grid is responsible for designing, gaining consent and building reinforcement works required to facilitate the connection of the Wylfa Newydd Nuclear Power Station.
The proposed reinforcement works are essential to enable the export of sustainable, affordable, low carbon electricity from the proposed Wylfa Newydd Nuclear Power Station the need for which is identified as being urgent in National Planning Policy Statements.
Horizon has previously engaged with the North Wales Connection Project through their consultation process and has had ongoing interaction with National Grid to ensure the proposals are delivered in a coordinated and timely manner that is acceptable in planning terms. This has included the development of a Statement of Common Ground with National Grid.
As the construction of both projects will occur concurrently with works occurring in close proximity, it is essential that the delivery of the North Wales Project is planned, controlled and implemented in a manner that avoids disruption to the proposed Wylfa Newydd Nuclear Power Station development and the local communities.
Horizon reserves the right to make further representations as part of the examination process, but in the meantime continue to engage constructively with National Grid to ensure both projects can be implemented in a co-ordinated manner.
