The format in which documentation supporting a planning application, public inquiry or exhibition is presented, and the ease with which the audience can understand and assimilate that information, can play a significant role in influencing perceptions of a particular project. Material presented without due attention to quality and detail affects the views of the local authority, consultees, councillors and the general public.
EcoGen are a recognised authority in the production of Environmental Statements for wind farms in the United Kingdom, having completed over twenty such documents to date. The School of Planning at Oxford Brookes University states that they:
"... certainly recommend them as the best windfarrn ES's around."
EcoGen's approach and methodology has been carefully designed to suit the development of wind farms in a planning environment which requires and expects increasingly high standards. We have gained, over the past years, planning experience in different parts of the United Kingdom, discussing all aspects of wind farm development. Given this experience, we are confident that we can bring important insights into what planning officers, members of the public and other consultees expect from developers and produce material to a standard that reflects this.
We believe that the quality of this work and the methodology used have played a significant role in successfully obtaining planning permissions around the country.
