Real estate planning for data centres and battery storage schemes sits at the intersection of energy, technology, and land use policy. As the UK seeks to modernise its infrastructure, planning policy and the statutory framework underpinning it must continue to evolve to accommodate and plan for these emerging asset classes.
Developers often need to apply for bespoke planning permission for data centre use or otherwise justify the use, which slows down project timelines. To address this, the government has begun to signal support for treating data centres as critical digital infrastructure, encouraging local authorities to take a more supportive approach.
This article explores the UK government’s evolving stance and the implications for real estate planning and development. Data centres require highly specific site conditions: proximity to fibre optic networks, grid capacity, and low flood risk, alongside good physical access and security.
The London Plan 2021 recognises the importance of digital infrastructure, and reforms to the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) have explicitly required councils to identify suitable locations for data centre development. Historically, the NPPF did not explicitly mention data centres, leading to uncertainties in planning decisions.
