Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA)

The growth of renewable energy is accelerating as the world focuses on addressing climate change.

With over 18 year's EIA experience, we ensure a robust approach site design, providing constraints and protecting the hydrological environment through ES chapters.

Raincloud can provide EIA expertise to support clients working within the renewables sector, ranging from wind, solar, hydrogen and energy storage. We can provide support throughout every phase of the project from planning, discharge of conditions and construction.
