Environmental Permitting and Regulatory Assistance
The ever-changing regulatory landscape means that more processes than ever require regulation through environmental permitting. Keeping up and complying with regulations can quickly become a full-time job – and getting it wrong can have serious consequences for your new project. What’s more, the requirements across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, as well as the EU, are all different.
Why SOL stands out
At SOL, we’re extremely well-versed in preparing environmental permitting applications. Whether under the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED), the Environmental Permitting Regulations (EPR), or the EU/UK Emissions Trading Schemes (EU/UK ETS), we’ve been involved in the application process since the directives were first introduced. We’re up to date with all the most recent developments. We understand the level of information that’s required to ensure a swift decision from the regulator, without committing your organisation to unrealistic or unworkable operational or improvement conditions.
How we help
Our team can write, compile and manage all aspects of Part A(1), A(2) or Part B/SWIP Environmental Permit Applications and/or EU/UK ETS GHG Emissions Permits. We also support our clients in understanding their commitments under the various regulatory regimes.
Our services include

Beyond the paperwork

We offer a range of compliance services in support of the Renewable Obligation (RO), EU ETS, ESOS and CRC Energy Efficiency Schemes and can provide carbon verification reporting to ISO 14067 requirements.
