ENERGY STORAGE
The Mid Suffolk District Council Planning Committee is set to review a proposal for a 200kW Energy Storage System at Progress Way, amid fire safety concerns raised by local officials and the Eye Town Council. While the National Fire Chiefs Council assessed the fire risk as low if managed properly, concerns about potential pollution and evacuation protocols for nearby businesses persist. The proposal is part of AMP Clean Energy's broader plan to develop over 1,250 Battery Boxes across the UK in the coming years.
