Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would maximise opportunities for renewable energy and increase the embodied and operational carbon of the development

What decided it

Plan policies cited: Policy LP55 of the Hackney Local Plan 2033, Policy SI 2 of the London Plan 2021, Policy LP48 of the Hackney Local Plan 2033
