The application for Planning Permission in Principle was submitted in September 2025 and is currently undergoing assessment for the City of Edinburgh Council.

The application is recognised as a National Development under National Planning Framework 4, as it comprises a green data centre, which is identified as essential digital infrastructure. The application also proposes to relocate protected open space, which will be reconfigured into a new public park.

SHP was engaged in preparing PAN and managing extensive pre-application consultation programme with the City of Edinburgh Council and the local community. SHP also worked closely with project team in preparing both the Planning Statement and Pre-Application Consultation Report, liaising with the team on design evolution and advising on/contributing to other supporting documents.
