The expansion land at the Bridge of Don site already benefits from Planning Permission in Principle (PPiP) to deliver 48,000 sq m (500,000 sq ft) of industrial, office and warehouse accommodation.

The amendment means that the expansion land can accommodate use Classes 4, 5 and 6, with Class 6 use (storage or distribution) now unrestricted.

Speaking on behalf of applicants Buccmoor LP, Steph Rennie, associate of Buccleuch Property, said: “With the benefit of this consent, we can now fully demonstrate to the market that the expansion land at Aberdeen Energy Park will accommodate office, industrial and distribution warehousing across Use Classes 4, 5 and 6.

“The quality environment of the park remains a key feature and we look forward to delivering bespoke solutions to occupiers, be it through site sales or bespoke development.”

Mark Holmes from Moorfield Group, on behalf of the parks’ owner, Moorfield Real Estate Fund III, added: “We are very grateful for the ongoing support of Aberdeen City Council as we look to further develop both the Energy and Innovation Parks into a top business location in the North East of Scotland. This planning approval is a further boost and will widen the appeal of the park to a wider audience.”

Buccmoor LP is a joint venture between Buccleuch Property and Moorfield Real Estate Fund III.
