In 2006, we formed Consense as a separate trading division of 2Cs Communications. We started to run online consultations for wind farm planning - another industry sector where the planning process can be hampered by vocal anti-groups. Open Debate was first adopted by Your Energy for their Milton Keynes Wind Farm which subsequently gained planning consent in December 2007, and it is now used by a wide range of wind farm developers including Broadview Energy, Infinergy, npower renewables, ScottishPower Renewables, Vattenfall, and Viking Energy. Open Debate is making community engagement accessible, interactive and auditable for over 60 proposed wind farms in the UK.
