How to apply for approval of wind power at mobile energy storage sites

4 FAQs about How to apply for approval of wind power at mobile energy storage sites

Do you need zoning approval for a wind project?

Securing necessary permits and zoning approval is an essential step for all energy projects. The processes and information required for permitting wind projects vary across applications and geographic areas. Understand Permitting and Zoning.

Can a state sit a wind energy project?

C. Local Siting. In states where projects do not trigger state siting jurisdiction, and in states with no state siting process, wind energy projects are permitted by the local jurisdiction. For typical rural wind energy projects, this is almost always a county (as opposed to a city governing body).

Who approves a wind power project?

The county governing body, e.g., a board of commissioners or board of adjustment, typically approves and issues a permit for siting and development. In most counties throughout the United States, a wind power project is conditionally allowed in rural land use zones.

How long does it take to sit a wind energy project?

On average, siting wind energy facilities through a state siting process takes longer than doing so through a local process, as more documentation is typically required at the state level. In Oregon, for instance, the issuance of a site certificate for a wind project may take from 12 to 18 months or more if there is heavy opposition.
