Water is a vital resource. With water demand set to increase, and availability to decrease, water security is becoming an increasingly important design consideration for any form of development, facility or landscape.
TEP has considerable experience in developing water security solutions for a wide variety of clients. Our work ranges from designing water sensitive landscape plans, integrating Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) into new masterplans and retro-fitting nature based solutions into existing developments. We specialise in the preparation of long-term water security strategies and water management plans for agricultural, horticultural and sporting facilities.
Our feasibility studies start with an initial review of a site’s existing water supply, water usage and drainage infrastructure. We then explore issues and options for water sourcing, irrigation and storage, culminating in a site wide masterplan, which may also consider other factors such as biodiversity gain, carbon, amenity and resilience. Our masterplans can be used to inform cost plans, followed by technical detailing and construction.
