Sector

Environmental cover for waste, energy and renewables operators.

High-throughput, high-consequence operations need policies that respond when the worst happens — from leachate breakthrough to transformer fires. Meliora ESG places EIL and operational pollution programmes built around the actual risk.

Who we work with

Waste management groups, recycling facilities, waste-to-energy operators, AD plants, solar and battery storage developers, oil and gas decommissioning specialists, and forestry operators with biomass exposure.

Operational exposures we address

  • Site-based pollution events and statutory clean-up obligations
  • Leachate, groundwater and surface water contamination
  • Air emissions and odour complaints under the EPR regime
  • Transportation pollution across the operational fleet
  • Closure, post-closure and aftercare liabilities
  • Biodiversity damage under the Environmental Damage Regulations

Programme design

Multi-year EIL with mortgagee endorsements, contractor's pollution liability wrapped around capex projects, and bespoke wordings for novel technologies where standard market forms do not respond.

Surety bonds via PS Surety

Permit financial provision, landfill restoration bonds and performance guarantees are arranged through our partnership with PS Surety, a specialist UK surety broker. The bond facility is designed to sit alongside the environmental insurance programme so the regulator, lender and operator see one coherent picture of how aftercare and pollution liabilities are funded.
