Details

This regulatory position statement (RPS) does not change your legal requirement to get an environmental permit when you operate a specified generator with one or more tranche B generators, for research and development testing.

However, the Environment Agency will not normally take enforcement action when you do this without getting an environmental permit if you comply with the requirements in this RPS.

This enforcement position does not apply to any other legal requirements.
