The proposals are not expected to have any adverse effects on the Welsh language. The redevelopment of the former Aberthaw Power Station as the Cardiff Capital Region Aberthaw Green Energy Park will support sustainable employment, training, and community engagement within the Vale of Glamorgan. By promoting inclusive growth and skills development while integrating climate resilience measures, the development can help retain and attract local communities and support the use and visibility of Welsh, contributing positively to the social and cultural well-being of the area in line with RLDP objectives.
CCR Energy welcomes the emphasis within SP16 on climate change mitigation and adaptation, including consideration of flood risk at the former Aberthaw Power Station. The proposed redevelopment of the site as the Cardiff Capital Region Aberthaw Green Energy Park will incorporate comprehensive Flood Consequence Assessments and appropriate mitigation measures to ensure safe, resilient development. By integrating sustainable drainage systems, green infrastructure, and regenerative design principles, the proposals will address tidal and fluvial flood risk, support climate resilience, and contribute to the Vale of Glamorgan’s broader zero-carbon and environmental objectives, demonstrating exemplar practice in sustainable redevelopment of previously developed land.
