Renewable Energy
KOR's team of experts are trusted advisers to its clients bringing forward plans for renewable energy projects. We have extensive experience of working on communications strategies for solar PV, onshore wind, anaerobic digestion plants and battery storage systems.
Communicating the aims and objectives of a landowner and renewable energy developer clearly and effectively to neighbours and stakeholders is a key component of any renewable energy project. Meaningful and early communication can nurture understanding and support and mitigate the impact of any opposition.
At KOR we understand that it is the reputation of the landowner which can often be most seriously affected when a renewable energy project is proposed. Generational businesses like landed estates often need specialist targeted support to avoid long term reputational damage and secure the financial and environmental sustainability of the Estate for future generations.
We prioritise the reputation of the landowner, alongside the operator or developer, and bring a detailed understanding of the different communication requirements that each of them has as a project progresses.
We understand the arguments used by opponents of renewable projects, including the potential loss of productive farmland for growing food, the threat to the appearance of the landscape and the perceived amenity damage to communities nearby. We have proven strategies to counter these claims and build a powerful and positive case to encourage support for your project, whilst protecting your reputation.
Landowners have a significant role to play in helping the UK to reach its net zero targets as part of the measures to mitigate the impact of climate change and give the UK greater energy resilience in an increasingly uncertain world.
