Areas of expertise

Achieving the more ambitious levels of the BREEAM methodology requires thorough consideration and careful planning. Planning for Sustainability assigns a BREEAM Accredited Professional to all BREEAM projects supporting planning and design teams delivering the sustainability commitments in an efficient and cost effective manner.

Many local authorities have now adopted policies that require that a certain percentage of the energy use of new development will be generated on the site using low or zero carbon technologies. Planning for Sustainability provides a comprehensive set of services to assist the planning and design of development proposals to meet these requirements

Planning applications for larger or more complex development proposals are often required by law to be supported by a formal environmental statement. Our focus does not only lie with the technical aspects of the work, we will also advise on project risks (both financial and programme risks) and procurement strategy.

Climate change is the most dominant issue on the current sustainability agenda. Development projects can provide a significant positive contribution to the way the issue is managed, now and in the future.

Many sustainability requirements have a fundamental influence on certain design elements and delaying the management of sustainability issues to later stages in the development programme can cause significant increase in the risk to a projects development costs and programme.
