TheMission.
Deploying large-scale renewable energy is the key to a sustainable future, harnessing the sun—our greatest natural resource. Unlike fossil fuels, sunlight is limitless and will provide clean energy for the next five billion years.
Renewable energy plays a critical role in the UK’s decarbonisation strategy, building climate resilience and insulating the country from volatile energy markets. It supports the transition to a net-zero 2050 economy.
Generating clean energy at home ensures affordable, reliable electricity, driving economic growth and reducing living costs for future generations.
All UK renewable markets are subsidy-free, requiring no government or public funding.
NET ZERO.
Climate change is the defining crisis of our time, accelerating faster than expected. Urgent action is needed, and the UK must foster new sectors to thrive. Transitioning to low-cost, low-carbon electricity from renewable sources is crucial to the UK’s climate strategy and must happen quickly and at scale.
The UK Government has committed to reducing emissions by 68% by 2030 and reaching net-zero by 2050. This ambitious target means halting the use of fossil fuels, cutting emissions across all sectors, and transitioning to renewable energy for power, heat, and transport. Achieving net-zero by 2050 will require a £50 billion-a-year investment in clean energy technologies, creating thousands of green jobs, and saving consumers up to £4.6 billion annually on energy bills. It is a massive opportunity to lead the world in clean energy innovation and drive economic growth while protecting the planet for future generations.
The Process
Powering the Future.
1.
Grid connection
Identify areas of available grid capacity within the UK by using heat maps and connection surgeries with local Distribution Network Operators (DNO) and the National Grid.
2.
LAND SELECTION
We search the area surrounding the available grid for land considering planning constraints, topographical orientation, suitable ground condition and surrounding infrastructure.
3.
Landowner Partnership
Long-term partnerships are important to us. We build valued relationships with all landowners as we work closely throughout the next steps.
4.
Pre-Planning Surveys
Consideration will be given to several factors including, environmental impact, landscape visual impact, heritage and archaeology, landscape ecology, biodiversity, agricultural land classification, construction traffic management, noise and flood risk.
5.
The community
We are committed to ensuring that we remain open and engaged with the community. We host a local public consultation event as an opportunity to learn more about our proposal and to seek feedback, which will all be considered, evaluated and used to develop the final design.
6.
Planning application
Further public consultation will be undertaken by the Local Planning Authority (LPA) when the planning application is registered.
7.
Determination
The Local Planning Authority (LPA) will determine if the planning application is successful. If approved, there follows a judicial review period of six weeks from the determination date.
8.
Construction & operation
Contractors will be selected accordingly. Dependant on size, the project will take approx. 6 to 12 months to construct. The project is then connected to the network creating an abundance of sustainable, clean energy to achieve a brighter future for us all.
BIODIVERSITY COMMITMENT.
Boom Power is dedicated to ensuring our activities do not negatively impact the environment in which we work. Our objective is to always achieve a biodiversity net gain, providing an overall increase in natural habitat and ecological features on all of our projects.
We recognise the importance of environmental protection and are committed to operating our business sustainably, responsibly and in full compliance with the statutory and regulatory bodies. We seek and implement independent ecologist advice to allow natural habitats to actively thrive.
