Power

Surviving in today's global power markets remains a challenge. Developing regions will account for more than 90 percent of global energy-demand growth to 2020, with growth most rapid in the Middle East. Globally, there may be still some uncertainties among the various government stimulus packages, but the new spending will have a huge impact on power-related projects.

At Baker & McKenzie, our track record in power projects — extensively advising on the development, operation, and financing of a range of projects — includes many "milestone projects" throughout the world. We act primarily for project developers, but also for lenders, governments, international agencies, contractors and operators.

Being one of the largest international law firms, our clients will take advantage of our local market knowledge and relationships, first mover advantage for new opportunities and introductions to key local regulators and industry players. Our comprehensive industry knowledge, global reach and world-class abilities enable us to bring the right people, with the right skills, wherever you operate.
