For applicants, designers and planners
Kent Fire and Rescue Service encourage applicants, designers and planners to contact us at the earliest opportunity.
By engaging with us early on in the process, we can advise and help you to ensure your proposals meet the recommendations set out by the National Fire Chiefs Council Guidance and also align with our emergency response. Although intended for Fire and Rescue Services, this guidance assists with understanding the information we require from you and why.
See below for details of the information we need for Solar and BESS, and how to contact us.
