Welcome to Find a National Infrastructure Project

Here you can find more information about Nationally Significant Infrastructure Projects (NSIPs). These are large scale projects like power stations, highways and power lines. They are treated separately from normal local authority planning because of their size and importance to wider communities.

This site is managed by the Planning Inspectorate, the government agency responsible for examining applications of this size and scale in England and Wales.

This is a new service. If you are visiting for information on a Welsh project, visit our old website.
