Our work in the solar sector
Solar is growing rapidly in the UK, with the amount of solar energy generation set to treble by 2030.
Growth, however, presents challenges: from connecting into a constrained grid to lukewarm political support and communities concerned about loss of farmland.
We know the sector intimately. We are associate members of Solar Energy UK and are working currently to secure consent for a number of large-scale solar farms.
We support clients with every step of the way in developing new solar farms, from helping secure funding for new assets through to building stakeholder buy-in and consulting communities on specific proposals.
