Renewables
Many farmers and landowners are realising the value in making land available for energy generation projects.
Increasingly, they are being approached by companies looking to take option agreements over their land for renewable energy projects.
Before committing to any agreements we can advise clients on:
- negotiating heads of terms including payments for option and lease agreements for wind and solar farms and battery storage schemes
- negotiating terms for access and utilities over adjoining land owned by third parties for rights over their land
- rent reviews and amending the terms of existing leases for wind and solar farms
We can assist in the identification of suitable technologies and the appraisal and implementation of renewable energy schemes. This includes wind turbines, hydro and solar generation and battery storage.
Our advice covers using permitted development rights and obtaining planning consent, support payments, incentives and grants, methods of development funding and agreements between landowners and occupiers to adequately protect their future interests.
We have good links with industry specialists so you always have access to the appropriate level of technical expertise when it’s needed.
Above all, we can offer impartial and professional advice in a growing sector.
