Application Details
Description
Proposed installation of a new 33kV overhead line (OHL) less than 2km in length on land between Bodmin Road and Greensplat Road, St Austell, (PL26 8XY), to facilitate the grid connection of consented wind turbines. The development comprises the construction of a new 33kV overhead distribution line, supported by a series of wood poles ranging in height from approximately 9m to 14.5m. The alignment has been designed to utilise land that is primarily characterised by previous industrial uses, including quarrying and mining activities, thereby minimising landscape and environmental effects where possible. The proposed OHL will connect the consented renewable energy generators to local distribution network and will follow a route selected to avoid visual impact, ecological and heritage constraints and respond appropriately to the sites established post-industrial character
