Build the evidence base for PROVEN nature-positive energy

Biodiversity monitoring for wind, solar and biogas — supporting consent, operations and credible nature claims.

The case for renewables is also a case about land use, habitats and wildlife. Bird and bat impacts at wind sites, biodiversity claims at solar farms, grid expansion effects and the cumulative impact of accelerated deployment are all under closer scrutiny — from planning authorities, NGOs, host communities and increasingly from investors. Developers and operators that can evidence their nature performance consent faster, operate with fewer constraints and defend their claims with confidence.

Your drivers

Consent and EIA

Bat and bird baselines, collision risk assessment and post-consent monitoring are now standard expectations for wind, and increasingly for solar and BESS.

BNG delivery

Solar in particular is positioned as a biodiversity opportunity — that claim needs measurement, not assertion.

Operational compliance

Curtailment regimes, mortality monitoring and HRA conditions require ongoing data, not one-off surveys.

Investor and offtaker scrutiny

Green finance, ESG-linked PPAs and lender requirements increasingly demand nature evidence alongside carbon.

Repowering and life extension

Fresh consents require updated baselines on assets that have operated for 15–25 years.

What we provide

We deliver acoustic and image-based monitoring across the full project lifecycle, from pre-consent baseline through construction and into operations. The same platform supports developers, asset managers and O&M teams with consistent, comparable data across portfolios.

  • Multi-season baseline surveys for bats, birds and other taxa
  • Operational monitoring, including bat activity around turbines
  • Solar farm biodiversity uplift evidence, year on year
  • Outputs aligned to EIA, HRA, BNG, TNFD and lender ESG requirements
  • Portfolio-level dashboards across sites and technologies
