Companies rely on sound guidance as they look for ways to move beyond environmental compliance and into excellence. This is key to driving sustainability from the heart of our clients' businesses.
Environmental excellence is built on a foundation of repeatable compliance and GHD has developed a framework of compliant systems that encompasses reporting, monitoring, auditing, and REACH requirements.
We guide clients through permit applications and management with a repeatable best practice approach. This includes methods to meet emissions permit and regulatory requirements, best available techniques and operator monitoring assessments. Beyond this, we manage clients' EU Emissions Trading Systems, helping them meet caps and maximise the value of their allowances.
At a project level, we conduct air quality and odour assessments to identify impact risks and opportunities. We then develop solutions that move beyond compliance to gain buy in from nearby stakeholders. We conduct technical peer reviews to assure our clients' planned developments.
Our environmental and social impact assessments identify key risks and opportunities to deliver wider sustainability legacies. We also analyse their day-to-day operations to identify improved resource, waste, and working process efficiencies. Our bespoke in-house HSE training helps internalise the behaviours and processes needed to drive continuous improvement and set clients up to organically deliver environmental excellence.
Early stakeholder engagement is the cornerstone of a smooth planning process. We lead liaison for clients to inform planning applications and the discharge of any associated conditions. This helps clients understand and resolve potential blockers before they impact on planning approvals.
Whether our clients are building a foundation for compliance, undertaking a new development, or making changes to existing environmental protection regulations permits, GHD drives responsible and sustainable operations.
