Planning promotion in GVA’s Cardiff team

Property adviser GVA has promoted Ben Lewis to the position of Director within its Planning, Development and Regeneration team in Cardiff.

Ben has been with GVA for nearly 14 years, and is working across a range of public and private sector clients. He specialises in the energy sector, and has recently been successful in securing consent on appeal for an 11 ha ground-mounted solar photovoltaic installation for Elgin Energy Esco Ltd in Pembrokeshire. Ben is also leading the preparation of an application for a Development Consent Order for the expansion of Tata Steel’s power station in Port Talbot.

GVA Senior Director Jo Davis says: “Ben’s promotion is an important step in growing our local and national energy profile. Ben is an integral member of our strong planning offer in the Cardiff market and has played a major part in our continued growth.”
