Glint and Glare Assessments for Solar PV Development
CPA has developed a 3 dimensional computer based model which allows us to identify the potential for glint at any receptor point as a result of a proposed solar pv development.
As part of our assessment we identify potentially sensitive receptors within 5km of a site such as residential properties and roads. Using our model, we then determine whether glint effects may occur at these receptor locations as a result of the proposed facility, and if so, the duration, time of the day and time of year of such effects. Our model generates data at minute intervals for an entire year allowing us to accurately determine potential glint effects. If potentially significant glint effects are identified, then we use the output from the analysis to determine suitable landscape mitigation measures.
Cemeteries and Crematoria
The burials and cremation sector is responsible for managing and controlling various environmental impacts. The establishment and management of burial grounds require consideration of land-take and protection of groundwater and watercourses, following guidelines from the Environment Agency (EA) and the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA). Cremation installations need to consider energy use and emissions to air, which are controlled under Local Authority Pollution Prevention Control (LAPPC).
CPA are able to offer a wide range of environmental services relating to this sector including site surveys, assessments, feasibility studies and planning advice.
