Energy

Working on some of the most ambitious projects worldwide with a particular strength in EMEA means we have been able to anticipate issues, create innovative solutions and identify opportunities for our clients whether they are sponsors, contractors, lenders or governments.

Our award-winning team works on all aspects of large-scale energy projects in the conventional power, nuclear and renewables space all over the world, including the 650MW Markbydgen ETT wind farm in Sweden, a transaction that won the European Wind Deal of the Year at Thomson Reuters PFI Europe Awards 2018.

Our work with our clients includes the development, project procurement, M&A, joint venture agreements, power purchase agreements, fuel supply contracts, commodity and energy trading, government owned contractor arrangements, and complex law clauses and multi-tier and multi-party arbitration, jurisdiction agreements and disputes.

We specialise in finance, with extensive experience of solving the challenges that all complex projects face, including developing first-of-a-kind financing and security structures where needed.

We are particularly known for our experience in the Middle East, for example the US$3bn Facility D IWPP in Qatar, the largest project of this type in the Middle East to date, and for major African power projects, such as the Kribi gas to power project in Cameroon, and the INGA 3 hydro power project in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Be they substantial investors, property funds, lenders, borrowers, and developers, our strategic and creative thinking are the hallmarks of our practice and with our constructive approach to the law, clients view us as trusted business advisers.
