Survey Solutions delivered topographic surveys in Catsfield for Masdar Arlington Energy—supporting battery storage planning and renewable energy rollout.
Precision Surveys Supporting Renewable Energy Delivery in Catsfield, Battle
Survey Solutions is proud to be supporting Masdar Arlington Energy—a leading force in flexible energy infrastructure—as they roll out battery energy storage systems across the UK.
Our latest commission involved a detailed topographical survey in Catsfield, Battle, a key part of renewable energy development in Catsfield. The 27.5-acre site, part of a working farm, is the fifth in a series of projects we’ve delivered for Masdar Arlington Energy, providing the critical survey data needed to progress their plans from feasibility through to planning submission.
Survey Expertise Enabling Energy Transition
Masdar Arlington Energy’s planning team required a full topographical survey covering both the site and its proposed access route. This data underpins assessments from consultants across planning, infrastructure, drainage, and landscape design. Understanding the terrain at this stage helps to shape a scheme that’s technically feasible, environmentally responsible, and planning-compliant.
Working on live agricultural land brings added operational complexity. Our team carefully planned and delivered the survey to minimise disruption, maintain the integrity of the land, and ensure safety for livestock—while still meeting technical scope and timescales.
The site is now progressing through planning, backed by precise, reliable data that de-risks decision-making and helps drive investment confidence. This successful outcome is a vital part of ongoing renewable energy development in Catsfield, supporting a greener, more resilient energy future.
We’re pleased to be enabling another step forward in the UK’s energy transition and look forward to continuing our work with Masdar Arlington Energy on future sites.
“After evaluating several surveying companies, we chose to work with Survey Solutions due to their responsiveness, competitive pricing, and nationwide network of offices. Their ability to quickly mobilise and reduce travel is crucial for us as a renewable energy company. The quality of Survey Solutions’ data was also superior to other providers, with no discrepancies and was formatted and packaged in a way that was really easy to use. With several more projects lined up next year, we look forward to continuing our partnership with Survey Solutions. They’re incredibly friendly and approachable and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them”
