Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether there would be a detrimental effect from the proposed development on the operation of the solar arrays on the neighbouring property at No 107 Wargrave Avenue as a result of overshadowing and a detrimental effect on climate change
What decided it
The failure of the appellant to propose any renewable generation scheme to mitigate the adverse impact on the neighbouring solar arrays and to meet national and local climate change and renewable energy policies, combined with the rapidly developing climate emergency, outweighed the objective of making sustainable use of the dwelling.
