The Scottish Government is consulting on measures that could save businesses time and money by making it easier to install renewable energy equipment.
Permitted Development Rights (PDR) grant permission for certain types of development through national legislation, meaning they can go ahead without a formal planning application.
The proposals would make it quicker and cheaper for businesses and homeowners to install equipment, including solar panels and heat pumps, helping reduce their bills and cutting carbon emissions. The consultation seeks views, for example, on removing the 50kw output limit of solar panels fitted to non-domestic buildings.
