At Applus+, we understand that environmental permitting is a strategic, multidisciplinary process essential to ensuring the environmental and regulatory viability of any industrial, infrastructure, or energy-related project. It encompasses the steps to apply for environmental permits, manage their lifecycle, and adapt proactively to evolving compliance frameworks, in close coordination with environmental legal services to ensure full alignment with applicable legislation.
With over 30 years of experience in environmental permitting, Applus+ supports both public and private organizations throughout the entire permitting cycle—from early-stage viability studies to compliance during operation.
We assist in identifying administrative processes, evaluating alternatives, and preparing all technical documentation needed to apply for environmental permits. Our team helps reduce delays and increase approval rates by integrating technical, legal, and strategic considerations from the outset.
As specialized environmental permitting consultants, we offer expertise in environmental impact assessments, best available techniques (BAT), mitigation planning, and the definition of environmental monitoring systems and protocols, all aligned with evolving regulatory frameworks and sustainability goals.
During construction, we provide environmental management to ensure alignment with issued authorizations and track natural or receiving environments as required. During the operational phase, we support updates to permits, assess sector-wide documentation, and deliver regular reports to authorities.
Our strength lies in our multidisciplinary teams, which include environmental permitting specialists, ESG consultants, and experts in safety and environmental monitoring, providing support across various industries, such as power, renewable energy, infrastructure, utilities, and services.
Thanks to our sector-specific insight and regulatory expertise, we can address complex local and international requirements, anticipating issues and supporting success. We also coordinate related technical tasks, such as studies on hazardous substances or environmental liability, and can monitor impacts or act as an accredited inspection body prior to project commissioning.
While often associated with project design and initial approvals, environmental permitting is increasingly recognized as a strategic service across the full project lifecycle. Organizations in the power, renewable energy, infrastructure, manufacturing, and utilities sectors rely on us not only to obtain authorizations but also to ensure long-term environmental permitting and compliance.
Applus+ helps clients integrate environmental planning from the early feasibility stages, identifying and analysing potential risks, setting proactive action plans, and reducing the chance of project rejection, authorization breaches, or regulatory penalties. Our role extends beyond reports; we are active partners in every permitting milestone.
