Able Local Plan - Teesside & Yorkshire

ABLE Group is shaping a bold vision to transform Teesside and Yorkshire into hubs for clean energy, advanced industry, and sustainable communities. Our strategy integrates energy-enabled development, closed-loop economies, and regenerative strategically located sites.

Key Objectives

  • Community & Housing: Allocate land for employment hubs and sustainable housing, improving connectivity and quality of life.

  • Clean Energy Leadership: Deliver offshore wind, hydrogen, and renewable energy infrastructure to power data centres and advanced manufacturing.

  • Closed-Loop Systems: Combine energy generation, storage, water management, recycling, and agriculture to create a self-sustaining economy.

  • Economic Growth: Support local plans by creating jobs, housing, and logistics platforms aligned with regional development frameworks.

  • Environmental Stewardship: Promote biodiversity, carbon capture, and circular economy principles to balance growth with ecological protection.

Strategic Site for Development

  • Queens Park, Stockton
    Queens Park is a 4.37-acre site in the heart of Teesside, primed for development to support the region’s ambitions for sustainable growth and connectivity. Currently awaiting transformation, the site is earmarked for residential housing and automotive roadside uses, complementing Teesside’s Local Plan objectives for vibrant communities and economic diversification. With excellent transport links and proximity to established urban infrastructure, Queens Park offers a unique opportunity to deliver high-quality homes and roadside services that enhance local mobility, create jobs, and strengthen the area’s role as a dynamic gateway for residents and businesses.
