Our Services
Aviation Glint & Glare Assessment Airports & ATC
We provide UK-compliant solar glint and glare assessments for airports, airfields, and air traffic control towers. Our studies evaluate potential reflections from solar PV panels that could affect pilot visibility during critical flight phases such as approach, landing, and take-off. Using geometric modelling and screening analysis, we ensure full alignment with Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) guidance and UK planning requirements.
Roadway Solar Glint & Glare Assessments
Our roadway glint and glare assessments analyse whether solar developments could create hazardous reflections for motorists on nearby roads and highways. We assess reflection duration, intensity, and viewing angles to determine potential safety risks and provide practical mitigation measures where required, supporting smooth planning approvals in the UK.
Railway Solar Glint & Glare Assessments
We assess the impact of reflected sunlight from solar panels on train drivers and railway operations. Our studies identify possible glare events, assess their severity, and determine whether existing or proposed screening features reduce risk, ensuring compliance with UK transport and safety expectations.
Residential & Community Glint & Glare Assessments
Our residential glint and glare studies evaluate the potential impact of solar reflections on nearby homes and sensitive receptors. These assessments focus on visual amenity, comfort, and planning compliance, ensuring solar projects remain community-friendly and environmentally responsible.
UK Planning-Ready Glint & Glare Reports
We deliver clear, professional, and planning-ready glint and glare reports tailored to UK local authority requirements. Our reports reference National Policy Statements (EN-1 & EN-3) and relevant aviation and transport guidance, helping developers move through planning with confidence.
Glint & Glare Mitigation & Design Solutions
Where potential glare is identified, we provide practical mitigation strategies such as layout optimisation, panel orientation adjustments, and screening solutions. Our goal is to minimise risk while keeping solar projects viable and cost-effective.
