07 May 2012 - Bio-energy, produced from sustainable sources, could meet up to 11% of the UK's electricity and heating demand by 2020. However, there are a number of barriers to successful uptake; such as public opposition to incineration plants or inadequate space for boilers. Whilst the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) aims to increase community schemes for renewable energy uptake, the localism agenda has created uncertainty for developers, who fear that local opposition will stop them gaining planning permission. A reduction in future support for bio-energy development has caused uncertainty.

Observe always that everything is the result of change, and get used to thinking that there is nothing Nature loves so well as to change existing forms and make new ones of them.
- Marcus Aurelius, emperor of Rome (121-180 AD)

In our profession, a plan that everyone dislikes for different reasons is a success. A plan everyone dislikes for the same reason is a failure. And a plan that everyone likes for the same reason is an act of God.
- Richard Carson, Pacific Northwest planner and writer.

We architects and urban planners aren't the visible symbols of oppression, like the military or the police. We're more sophisticated, more educated, and more socially conscious. We're the soft cops.
- Robert Goodman, After the Planners
