    As core segments of the global economy continue to embrace sustainable and carbon-neutral energy resources as complementary and integral to fossil-based systems of energy production and consumption, we stand ready to guide our clients through the energy transition. Our team is at the forefront of the flourishing energy transition market, and we bring practical experience, perspective, and innovative thinking to the sector. By combining our more than 40 years of experience in renewable and conventional energy with an integrated service approach, we help clients to plan for, invest in, and thrive in today’s shifting environment. Not only does our team include experienced energy and corporate lawyers, but also practitioners with deep experience in tax credits and tax equity, project finance, infrastructure, and power and renewables to serve the varied needs of our client base.

    Our attorneys represent clients engaged in innovative and challenging transactions and investments, including acquisitions and divestitures, project financings, project development matters, and operational arrangements involving all of the sector’s core and emerging technologies. We have led some of the most impactful endeavors in the current market, including those involving renewable and sustainable fuels, such as renewable natural gas, sustainable aviation fuel, and other biofuels. In addition, our lawyers have been engaged in projects involving hydrogen and carbon capture and sequestration—which are among the energy transition’s newest and promising technologies. We also have extensive experience in such foundational areas as energy storage, which has seen rapid growth over the last five years, as well as wind, solar, biomass, waste-to-energy, geothermal, oil and gas (including LNG), and other resources.
