Navitas - Chartered Surveyors

Saving the Power Industry Over £50m in Business Rates

We understand that for power industry operators, business rates represent one of the most significant and complex overheads. At Navitas Chartered Surveyors, we bridge the gap between technical energy operations and rating legislation.

Our track record speaks for itself: our specialist surveyors have saved our power industry clients in excess of £50m in rates liabilities in the 2010 Rating List alone. We don't just provide generic advice; we deliver measurable financial results for some of the UK's largest blue-chip energy companies.

Expertise Across the Energy Spectrum

Whether you are operating traditional coal-fired plants or cutting-edge battery storage facilities, we have the niche technical knowledge required to determine if your Rateable Values are fair. We specialise in the valuation of:

• Thermal Power: CCGT, OCGT, and coal-fired stations.
• Renewables: Wind, solar, and hydro power operations.
• Emerging Tech: Battery storage and dedicated biomass plants.
• Combined Heat & Power (CHP): Complex industrial energy sites.

Why Energy Giants Partner With Us

We take the "stresses and strains" out of the valuation process. By handling the entire Check, Challenge, and Appeal cycle, we allow your team to focus on generation while we focus on mitigation. Our strategy is simple: you know your business, we know business rates, and together we achieve real savings.

A Seat at the Table

We are more than just consultants; we are advocates for the sector. As active members of Energy UK, we represent our clients' interests at the highest levels. We regularly contribute to the Business Rates Working Party, helping to draft responses to the Valuation Office Agency (VOA), HM Treasury, and the Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government.
