POWER: NVE Launches New Guide to Streamline Approval for Solar Projects

POWER

 Norway’s NVE has introduced a new guide to streamline the approval process for energy facilities, reducing lead times for grid and solar power projects, it said.

  • Key elements include clearer instructions for solar power plants, with plans to expand to wind and other energy technologies.
  • The guide also provides a framework for changing applications, allowing developers to adjust plans during construction to minimise environmental impact.
  • Additionally, NVE has simplified final reporting requirements, shifting from detailed reports to confirming the establishment of internal control systems for energy plants.
  • Norway is targeting 8 TWh/yr of solar by 2030, up from around 0.5 TWh/yr at the moment.
