Land use policies for solar container communication station BESS

How do I secure land use rights for a Bess development?

Securing land use rights for a BESS development is similar to the process for solar and wind farm developments. During the investigations and preliminary activity phase, a developer will need access. This is typically provided in an exclusivity agreement, option deed or a licence agreement.

What considerations should be included in a Bess project?

Similar to solar and wind farms, the development of a BESS project must take into consideration competing land uses and the terms of co-existence between the BESS, agricultural uses, mining activities and potentially native title rights. See our article discussing issues with competing land uses here.
