Site constraints 5

National infrastructure project: Knottingley Power Project
The site is inside the project boundary. Generating station, decided. The project page says whether consent was granted. Also within 2 km: East Coast Hydrogen Humber Pipeline (at pre-application, 161 m); Ferrybridge Next Generation Power Station (at pre-application, 1135 m).
Nationally significant infrastructure projects (power stations, electricity lines, pipelines, major roads and railways, harbours, airports and reservoirs) are consented by a Secretary of State under the Planning Act 2008, after an examination by the Planning Inspectorate, rather than by the council. The boundary is the one the Inspectorate consults on and can change as the scheme does. Projects are shown within 2 km of the site.
