LAND & PROPERTY CONSULTANCY

Solar & Renewables

As the UK works towards its 2050 net-zero commitment, landowners across the South East are seeing growing interest from renewable energy developers proposing solar, wind, and battery storage schemes. These agreements can offer long-term benefits but require careful negotiation and a clear understanding of the full process—from construction through to decommissioning.

Our renewables team regularly represents landowners of all sizes, working to secure strong commercial terms while ensuring your land and assets are properly protected throughout the life of the scheme. We’re currently involved in a wide range of projects, from large-scale solar farms progressing through the Development Consent Order (DCO) process to smaller-scale battery installations. Our services cover everything from initial enquiries and site appraisals to negotiating Heads of Terms, option agreements, and leases.

To discuss your land’s potential, please contact Laura or Jack.

REPRESENTING YOU THROUGHOUT

Our Services


Initial Enquiries & Site Appraisals

We help you assess whether your land is suitable for solar, wind, or battery storage schemes, considering key factors like grid access, planning potential, and land constraints. Early insight helps you make informed decisions—and gives you the upper hand in negotiations with developers.


Heads of Terms Negotiation

Getting the Heads of Terms right is critical. We negotiate fair, favourable terms that reflect the value of your land and set a strong foundation for the full agreement. Our goal is to maximise your income potential while protecting your long-term interests from day one.


Option Agreements

We guide you through the complexities of option agreements, ensuring exclusivity periods, developer obligations, and termination clauses are clearly defined and balanced. We make sure you’re not locked into disadvantageous terms—and that your land remains secure and under your control.


Lease Agreements

Your lease defines your long-term income and liabilities. We’ll negotiate terms that provide clarity, protection, and strong commercial value—covering everything from rent reviews and access rights to decommissioning and land reinstatement. No detail is overlooked.


DCO & Large-Scale Scheme Support

We have first-hand experience advising landowners involved in Nationally Significant Infrastructure Projects (NSIPs) progressing through the Development Consent Order (DCO) process. We ensure your interests are protected throughout the process, with clear, strategic advice from start to finish.


Battery Storage & Smaller-Scale Projects

Not every opportunity needs to be large-scale to deliver strong returns. We support landowners negotiating smaller battery installations and standalone schemes, ensuring you secure the best possible terms—without unnecessary risk or over-complication.
