AG Surveys Ltd can assist in the geomatics support for the planning, design, build and running of solar farms and BESS sites.

We work with planning consultants and green energy companies at all stages of the construction of solar farms and BESS sites around the UK.

Our involvement from start to finish includes:

  • LiDAR drone and photogrammetry can be used over large areas of agricultural land particularly where crops are growing.
  • Topographical surveys of the proposed site to enable generic design for planning permissions or detailed build design
  • Production of Accurate Visual Representations (AVR) from various viewpoints around the site to aid planning permission
  • Design evaluation, both desktop based and site verification
  • Full high detailed topographical ground and LiDAR survey for detailed design
  • UAV LiDAR survey to overlay and check existing surveys post design/pre build
  • As Built survey to show and visualise the true built form
  • Solar panel analysis and shading surveys to help improve site performance

Visualisations (AVR's) can be produced for planning.
