Rapid Site Screening
First Feasibility provides Rapid Site Screening for solar farms, battery energy storage systems, rural development and mixed-use projects across England, Scotland and Wales.
Prepared by an experienced planning and GIS professional, Rapid Site Screening provides an informed first opinion on a site's development potential through a concise review of planning, environmental and technical constraints.
What is Rapid Site Screening?
Rapid Site Screening is a high-level early-stage assessment designed to help landowners, developers, consultants and investors understand whether a site is likely to warrant further investigation.
It provides a practical overview of the principal opportunities and constraints affecting a site, without the time and cost associated with a full desktop feasibility assessment.

Rapid Site Screening can help establish whether land may have development potential before committing to more detailed technical work, consultant costs or planning strategy.
It can be used as a standalone review to better understand land potential, or as the first stage before commissioning a more detailed Desktop Feasibility Assessment.
