Planning application

ST MICHAELS PRIMARY SCHOOL.

Withdrawn Blackburn with Darwen 10/21/0730 Prior Approval - Solar Panels Non-domestic Buildings

Withdrawn before a decision, so it carries no planning weight. A revised scheme can be submitted at any time.

Proposal

WE PROPOSE THE INSTALLATION OF A 25.41KWP SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAICS ARRAY TO THE EXISTING ROOF AT TRINITY & ST MICHAELS PRIMARY SCHOOL. EQUIPMENT WILL BE SITED ON THE ROOF TO MINIMISE THE EFFECT ON THE EXTERNAL APPEARANCE OF THE BUILDING AND THE AMENITY TO THE AREA. THE SOLAR PANELS WILL NOT PROTUDE MORE THAN 0.2 METRES BEYOND THE PLANE OF THE ROOF SLOPE. EQUIPMENT MOUNTED ON THE ROOF WILL NOT BE WITHIN ONE METRE OF THE EXTERNAL EDGE OF THE ROOF. TO LIMIT REFLECTION, SOLAR PV PANELS ARE CONSTRUCTED OF DARK, LIGHT-ABSORBING MATERIALS AND COVERED WITH AN ANTI-REFLECTIVE COATING. THE SOLAR PV ARRAY WILL PRODUCE APPROXIMATELY 19,782kWh OF ELECTRICTY PER YEAR AND DOES NOT EXCEED ONE MEGAWATT CAPACITY.

What withdrawal means

The applicant withdrew this application before Blackburn with Darwen decided it, and is free to submit a revised scheme at any time. More in our guide to what happens after a planning decision.

About prior approval applications

Prior approval applies where permitted development rights already grant the principle of the work, leaving the council only the specific matters the rules name, commonly within 56 days. More in our guide to planning application types.
