Solar Farm Lease Negotiations
We have been involved in the identification of suitable land for Solar Farm sites across the UK and successfully negotiating numerous Heads of Terms in order to secure Option Agreements for long leases. At DXN Surveyors we act on behalf of both Solar Developers and for private land owners ensuring we obtain a fair agreement for both parties. Having experience working for both the Developer and Landowner gives us the understanding of what each party require and allow us to negotiate as efficiently as possible. When working on behalf of Landowners the Developer will even cover our fees!

Compulsory Purchase
Many infrastructure and utility developers have the power to access or acquire land via a range of compulsory powers. DXN Surveys have rare experience in dealing with both sides of these complex processes which give us a market advantage when representing our clients.

Development Loss Claims
As urban developments spread out into previously rural areas they are becoming increasingly conflicted with utilities which were installed in the 1960's. As the UK continues to suffer from housing shortages more development land is developed with utilities in situ. This can often lead to significant compensation claims for loss of development and Injurious Affection. DXN Surveyors have been involved with a number of these types of claims as well as looking at possible diversions of utilities.

Complex Leasehold Negotiation
DXN Surveyors Director, Arran Dixon, has specilised in dealing with Power Station closures where the UK's coal and gas fired PowerStation's have ceased generating and are being demolished. At sites such as these there are very complex land agreements in place which require expert knowledge to understand and negotiate to separate parties and allow for both to utilise their land to its full potential. Arran has dealt with over 11 of these power station closures working with the electricity network, generators and site developers.

External Consultancy
DXN Surveyors have been instructed by a number of large multi-national companies to provide advice on a wide range of matters as well as being imbedded into the organisation to offer support and advice on how to improve their processes and assistance in reviewing policies. We have first hand experience of being in-house in such organisations which gives us the market advantage of understanding the clients needs and objectives quickly and provide efficient recommendations.

Infrastructure Maintenance and Compensation Claims
Essential maintenance on existing infrastructure is a continuous job for utility firms to ensure the safety and reliability of their assets. DXN Surveyors have been instructed to facilitate maintenance work being carried out on underground pipelines and overhead lines as well as working on behalf of landowners who are affected by similar works. This requires landowner liaison prior to, during, and following the works ensuring a good working relationship is maintained between the utility firm and the landowners affected. Following the works DXN Surveyors negotiated and settled compensation claims for losses associated to the works.

Battery Storage Site Identification and Lease Negotiations
DXN Surveyors has been successful in identifying land for Battery Storage and negotiating Heads of Terms for Option Agreement and Leases across the UK. A key understanding is required in order to identify suitable locations in terms of grid capacity, access and development and ensuring a high probability of obtaining planning permission.
