CONSTITUENCY BRIEFING · ENERGYMAP.APP
Cannock Chase
Cannock Chase has no significant clean power approved and waiting to be built, and none running. Britain's grid bottlenecks still add to bills here: about £92 a year per household, £4.0m across the constituency's 43,457 homes. A 100 MW battery was refused planning here in 2026; while discharging it could have supplied about 350,000 homes.
Ranks 569 of 650 for clean power approved and not built.
