Renewable Energy
As a landowner planning to allocate land for a renewable energy project or an operator designing a new site, it is crucial to take the local community and decisionmakers on the journey with you. This requires careful planning and timely execution of thoughtful communications.
Landowners
Land diversification is a pivotal decision, one that shapes the legacy of your estate for generations to come. Whether driven by environmental goals, economic opportunities, or a blend of both, your objective is clear: to secure the future success of your land.
Effective communication is key to ensuring your community understands and supports your vision. Without it, the narrative around your project may be shaped by rumours and misinformation, jeopardising the reputation you've carefully cultivated over the years.
KOR works with landowners and estates to identify who they should be engaging with, how they can reach them, and - most crucially - what messages need to be communicated. This process is informed by thorough research and our experience.
Every estate or landholding is unique, but all benefit from early engagement with the local community.
If you’re considering a renewable energy project on your land, contact us to discuss how a strong communications strategy can safeguard your estate’s future.
Operators
For renewable energy operators, securing land is only the beginning - the success of your project depends on how effectively you engage with the local community.
Just as landowners aim to protect their estate’s legacy, you must have two-way communication with the community and stakeholders to nurture understanding and support.
At KOR, we support operators at three key stages:
Stakeholder Mapping: We identify and prioritise the key stakeholders - local residents, community leaders, environmental groups, and regulators - who can influence your project’s success.
Messaging Development: We craft clear, compelling messages that resonate with the community’s values, addressing concerns while highlighting the benefits of your project.
Stakeholder Consultation: We facilitate open, transparent dialogues to ensure stakeholders feel heard and involved, turning potential opposition into collaboration.
By connecting with stakeholders early and communicating in a way that resonates, you increase the chances of gaining their support.
