Renewables & Infrastructure
Full ecological support for large and linear schemes, planned around consent milestones rather than survey convenience.
What is it?
Renewables and infrastructure schemes bring their own ecological profile: large or linear sites, complex habitat mosaics, extended survey corridors, and programmes measured in years rather than months. We provide the full baseline, assessment and construction-phase support these projects need.
When is it required?
Suited to solar, wind and battery storage schemes, grid and cable routes, pipelines, substation upgrades and transport infrastructure from site selection onward.
What happens
- 01Constraints appraisal at site selection stage
- 02Baseline survey programme across the full corridor
- 03Assessment aligned to the consenting route
- 04Construction-phase supervision once consented
What happens next
On linear schemes the survey corridor usually changes as the route is refined. We plan for that rather than re-scoping each time.
