Outdoor environment testing
BRE’s outdoor environment testing services includes TV reception assessments and lighting consultancy services.
TV reception assessment
When a tall building is planned, we can carry out an assessment to determine whether TV reception will be impacted, and who will be affected. This is often required as part of an environmental impact assessment (EIA).

Daylight and sunlight
We offer guidance on window design, measuring daylight, solar shading, and avoiding excessive solar heating and glare. Our experienced daylighting team helps with designing site layouts to optimise daylighting, and with issues such as the right to light, overshadowing, and the effects of trees on daylight and sunlight. We can assess daylight and sunlight for planning, including writing Environmental Statement chapters for submission as part of planning applications, offer expert witness and review services and perform Rights to Light analysis.

Lighting installations can cause unwanted spill light to other properties or to the night sky. We assess light pollution from proposed developments and infrastructure and advise on cost-effective remedies. Our experts can provide reports or Environmental Statement chapters for submission as part of planning applications, and give evidence at planning hearings and public inquiries.
