Application progress
This application is under consideration - no decision has been issued yet. Plota predicted a decision around 4 Oct 2026; it is now day 257. The consultation period closed on 19 Feb 2026.
Planning committee
Decided by Aberdeenshire Kincardine and Mearns Area Committee on 1 Sept 2026. Earlier deferred on 30 Jun 2026. The council has not yet issued its decision notice.
Refused
Against officer advice: officers had recommended approval.
- Officers advised approval because the proposals complied with planning policies and supported renewable energy storage, subject to conditions.
- Objectors raised concerns about landscape, industrialisation, fire risks, roads, agricultural land, trees and wildlife.
- The committee voted 7–2 to refuse permission because the development would harm rural landscape character and visual amenity.
