Insurance Services

Lycetts, the market leading brokers in the rural sector, is dedicated to providing a professional insurance broking and risk management service for businesses engaged in a wide range of renewable energy projects including those involved in the development of biomass schemes.

Biomass energy is ideal for businesses which create a waste product and is a naturally occurring energy that is good for the environment.

With this in mind we have carried out extensive research to identify the biomass insurance needs that exist within the biomass renewable energy sector. We are able to arrange biomass insurance cover on a 'cradle to grave' basis from the construction phase through to the plant being fully operational , alternatively insurance cover can be arranged on a stand-alone basis for either the construction or operational risk.

We have secured unique facilities underwritten by major insurers for biomass development projects, offering bespoke biomass energy insurance cover and solutions that are specific to the type of risk involved, including:
