Black Box Planning
Telecommunications, Renewables & Infrastructure
We provide strategic planning and consenting advice for telecommunications, digital infrastructure, renewable energy and energy storage projects across the UK.
Planning for Energy and Digital Infrastructure
The way we generate energy, store power and stay connected is changing rapidly, creating demand for new infrastructure across the UK. From renewable energy and battery storage to telecommunications and data centres, these projects are increasingly central to national planning policy and the UK’s future infrastructure needs.
We work with infrastructure providers, developers, operators and landowners on solar farms, battery energy storage systems, telecommunications infrastructure, mobile networks, digital connectivity and data centres. Our experience spans projects progressing through the local planning system as well as larger-scale infrastructure and Development Consent Order (DCO) work.
With the evolving NPPF and wider national policy placing increasing emphasis on energy, infrastructure and sustainable growth, understanding the changing planning landscape is critical. We help clients interpret what that means for individual sites, identify opportunities and develop the right strategy from the outset.
These are often technically complex projects involving multiple specialist consultants, environmental considerations and stakeholder interests. We bring those strands together to build a clear and robust planning case, helping deliver the infrastructure the UK needs for the future.
