There is no blanket rule in UK planning that states every solar or wind development project must submit an electromagnetic (EMF) assessment, but that doesn’t mean projects can skip it. [...]

In November 2025, Network Rail published updated guidance on assessing glint and glare impacts towards railway receptors, which includes scope for assessing glare towards both rail drivers and signalling assets. [...]

When we think of disruptions to air travel, we may be minded to imagine things like severe weather events, airspace closures due to conflicts, technical faults or even cyber-attacks. We [...]

Artificial lighting is a crucial aspect of any new development, whether you are submitting planning for a new home, a sports facility, or an energy storage facility. In urban and [...]

In any planning application, the final decision lies with the planning authority to decide if a project receives permission or is denied. For smaller projects, this is usually the local [...]

Bird strikes are recognised as one of the major controllable hazards to aviation, and the risk does not end at the airport fence. Because birds are highly mobile, attractive features [...]

Solar farms can cause reflections throughout the day when sunlight hits the surface of photovoltaic (PV) panels. Depending on the orientation of the panels, the Sun and nearby receptors, these [...]

Early this month, Pager Power appeared at the Onshore Wind Conference 2026, and delivered a short presentation on our new Aviation Feasibility Maps as a part of the Supplier Showcase. [...]

Aviation glint and glare assessments for solar PV almost always become more complex than initially anticipated, and possibly counterintuitively, they typically get more complicated when assessing smaller general aviation aerodromes, [...]

When undertaking glint and glare assessments, it is often necessary to predict not only whether solar glare is geometrically possible, but also the glare intensity: how intense any instance of [...]
