 Free Training on Sustainable Energy for Kent Local
Planning Authorities
June and July 2005, held 'in house' at local authority offices
by arrangement
Renewable energy is becoming
a topic that planners need to have increased understanding of. With
the publication of Planning Policy Statement 22 (PPS 22) on renewable
energy, and the development of regional and local policy promoting
renewable energy use, training for planning officers is essential.
CEN through the The Kent Energy Centre (KEC) has received funding
from the Energy Saving Trust to develop training on sustainable
energy
specifically
for Kent local planning authorities. The training will be aimed at
both policy and development control officers, in 3 hour sessions
held 'in house' at the local authority offices,
ensuring that local issues can be fully discussed.
