Sectors
Expert advice across a wide range of fields
With technology moving fast and environmental legislation changing all the time, it’s never been more important to have expert insight. SOL Environment provides comprehensive, up-to-date advice and support across a number of key sectors. Our in-house team, supported by a network of trusted specialist consultants, works closely with each client to make sure that every new project is sustainable, compliant and effective.
Our Key Sectors
Industrial, Residential and Commercial Developers
The best way to build a sustainable development is to design one in the first place. At SOL, we work with developers from the earliest design phase to ensure that each new build achieves maximum sustainability without sacrificing user comfort. We also ensure that the new project is fully compliant with all relevant legislation, and provide auditing and advisory support for ongoing compliance in the long term.
Waste Infrastructure & Technology, Developers and Investment Providers
Waste Infrastructure and Renewable Energy Technology is an emerging sector that’s already changing the carbon emissions landscape in the UK and beyond. This sector has evolved significantly over the last decade and now includes ‘waste-to-chemical’, ‘waste-to-molecule’ and ‘waste-to-end-product’, as well as carbon capture and utilisation. With a wealth of knowledge and experience in this sector, the SOL team provides a core offering of high-value services to developers and investors. This covers everything from site finding and due diligence, technology risk appraisals and environmental assessments, and planning & permitting applications, to ongoing regulatory compliance.
Architects, Planners and Engineering Consultants
Our experts support architects, planners and engineering consultants in every aspect of planning and executing a sustainable, low carbon development project. We offer bespoke guidance and support at every stage of the project lifecycle, including design, archaeological and built heritage appraisal, environmental assessments and due diligence, permitting and regulatory assistance, ESG strategy, and beyond. Our in-depth knowledge of passive design and building physics embeds sustainability in every new build.
Industrial and General Manufacturing Sectors
Before creating SOL in 2010, our founder Steve Butler was an environmental consultant specialising in the heavy industrial, manufacturing, oil, gas, and power sectors. Today, the SOL team brings expert understanding and sensitivity to working with clients in the traditional industrial and manufacturing sectors. We provide pragmatic, clear and informed support in lowering carbon emissions, making the best use of emerging green technologies, and ensuring compliance in a shifting regulatory landscape.
Power, Wastes and Renewable Energy Sector
SOL is a leading presence in the dynamic renewables sector. Our client list already includes a number of major environmental technology companies, as well as small-scale biomass, low-carbon and renewable energy projects. Our core services include design and due diligence, planning and permitting, assessments, compliance, and carbon verification. We also provide cutting-edge technical advice on renewable energy sources, biofuels, gasification, waste processing and more.
Land and Asset Management
Environmental management is key to our work. We provide a full spectrum of targeted advice to land and asset management companies, supporting every new project from start to finish. Whether it’s a new housing development, commercial or industrial infrastructure, or an innovative energy project, our in-house experts and specialist consultants cover each aspect: from site evaluations and environmental permitting to regulatory compliance, sustainability auditing and ESG.
