The government’s removal of the de facto ban on the development of onshore wind energy in England and commitment to doubling onshore wind energy by 2030 is good news for windfarm developers and for Britain’s energy independence.
Wind farm development close to areas of aviation activity has the potential to create challenges for civil and military aviation which, in turn, can cause costly delays to the approval process.
At Osprey CSL we guide developers through the process of identifying suitable and mutually agreeable mitigation solutions for windfarm schemes through end-to-end support of our multi discipline teams. These teams have niche skills in Radar System Engineering and Air Traffic Management (ATM). Also, as a Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) Approved Design Organisation (APDO), Osprey is authorised to design, and safeguard, both conventional and satellite-based Instrument Flight Procedures (IFP).
Our expertise helps balance green energy initiatives with aviation safety. Contact us if you would like to discuss how we can help smooth the approval process for your scheme.
