Biomass
From waste planning, minerals planning, renewables and even enforcements cases – we have the operational insight to translate terms and provide you with clear advice throughout the planning process.
There is an ongoing systemic shift towards low-carbon and renewable energy for homes and businesses across the UK. If you already have a fleet of biomass facilities and want our help to update them or increase their scale – we’re the right port of call to secure planning consent.
It’s important that your planning consent reflects operational requirements and ensures there are no irregularities in the waste and minerals planning process.
Equipped with experience gained from working for operators in house, we understand what you want to achieve and have the commercial insight to deliver it too.
Our intimate knowledge of how the processes work gives us the edge so we can secure permission for biomass energy facilities and help to make your site as unconstrained as possible.
Whether you are a developer looking to make your development’s energy sources more sustainable, or a landowner or investor looking to capitalise on waste and renewable energy, we can provide the translation between what you need and what the technology requires.
We will advocate for your requirements at local planning authority level to ensure consent is achieved quickly.
SERVICE OPTIONS

The demand for wind power has never been higher. To deliver clean energy across the nation by 2035 we need to almost double our onshore wind capacity.
Biomass
From waste planning, minerals planning, renewables and even enforcements cases – we have the operational insight to translate terms and provide you with clear advice throughout the planning process.
Solar Energy
Seeking professional advice early will ensure that you maximise your potential return from solar energy, generating steady income for many years from your existing land assets.
Battery Energy Storage Systems
Seeking professional advice early will ensure that you maximise the potential returns from battery storage projects on your land, securing steady income for years to come.
Green Hydrogen
Decarbonising our economy with green hydrogen for a land or business owner can be a minefield – our experts will navigate you through the complexities, potentially delivering secure income for decades to come.
Hydropower
We’ve been harnessing water power since Roman times, yet while today’s hydro schemes look a little different the principle of harnessing our natural resources hasn’t changed.
Anaerobic Digestion & Gasification
There is an ongoing systemic shift towards low-carbon and renewable energy for homes and businesses across the UK - we are the one stop shop you need to see you though the planning process from start to finish.
Grid and Infrastructure Planning
We’ll help you navigate the complex world of power grid planning, minimising your risk and managing the consultation process from start to finish.
Grid and Infrastructure Scotland
We have a comprehensive understanding of the Electricity Act and its application to land rights and compensation, specialising in representing landowners affected by electricity apparatus including overhead and underground cables, both existing and proposed as well as land required for substations.
Offshore Grid Connections
The government is planning to quadruple renewable energy through offshore wind by 2030. This means wind farms will need to generate 50GWh that will all need to be connected to the grid via coastal land across the country.
Renewables for Landowners
We have been helping landowners realise the full potential of renewable technologies for almost 40 years and we continue to deliver new and exciting projects in this evolving environment.
Renewables for Developers
Over 30 years’ in the energy and renewables sector throughout the UK has positioned us as an established and experienced property advisor for developers. We have the knowledge to overcome land challenges, like new site finding, and delivering land rights for grid routes and access corridors, as well as providing property advice on all aspects of a renewable project.
Planning authorities need to handle waste and minerals correctly
As a result of net-zero legislation (including the Carbon Budget Order 2021) and the ongoing climate crisis, there is an ongoing systemic shift towards low-carbon and renewable energy for homes and businesses. This shift is supported by changes in the collection and treatment of waste made by the forthcoming Environmental Bill 2020 which is currently awaiting it’s third reading in the House of Lords.
