Driving support for Energy from Waste (EfW) projects.

We have extensive experience supporting the development and delivery of energy from waste (EfW) infrastructure across the UK. Our team has worked on a wide range of technologies, including combustion, gasification, pyrolysis, anaerobic digestion (AD), and landfill gas recovery—helping developers secure consent, build community confidence, and navigate often complex planning and regulatory landscapes.

Our work spans decisions at all levels, including appeals, delegated decisions, planning committees, and Secretary of State call-ins. We understand the scrutiny EfW projects can attract and are experienced in developing proactive communications strategies that address misinformation, manage controversy, and create space for constructive dialogue.

Our support includes:

  • Strategic stakeholder and community engagement

  • Statutory and non-statutory consultation delivery

  • Political and media relations

  • Issue and risk management, including objection mitigation

  • Educational content development to explain complex technologies

  • Post-consent communications and community relations

  • Reputation and crisis response planning

Whether the proposal is for a new-build AD facility in a rural setting or an urban gasification plant facing heightened public concern, our team brings the expertise and credibility needed to engage local stakeholders, respond to technical concerns, and drive broad-based support for vital low-carbon waste recovery infrastructure.
