Technical FAQs 3

Are battery storage units subject to Planning Act requirements?

The battery storage units associated with a BESS facility are subject to Planning Act requirements. Therefore, specific land use policy guidance is required to support BESS in Ottawa. These policies will be tabled at the Agricultural and Rural Affairs and Planning and Housing Committees on January 23 and February 5 respectively.

Should Bess be added to the city of Ottawa's official plan?

The report begins by recognising the complexity and uniqueness of BESS installations, recommending the addition of a new section to the City of Ottawa’s development guidelines, known as the Official Plan, specifically aimed at new battery storage facilities.

When will Ottawa's Housing & Planning Committee consider the report?

Following approval by the Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee, Ottawa’s Housing and Planning Committee will consider the report on 5 February, 2025, before it’s raised to the City Council on 12 February, 2025.
