Renewable Energy

Today’s growing renewable energy industry is alive with possibility as well as challenges. Working with experienced legal advisers helps to ensure your company’s risks are diminished, opportunities are explored and transactions are successful. Baker & McKenzie’s global renewable energy team represents developers, lenders and investors in all aspects of the renewable energy industry including biofuels, windpower, solar, carbon credits and climate change, geothermal, landfill gas and cleantech transactions. At Baker & McKenzie, we have worked on market-defining transactions and can assist you in all phases of renewable energy project development and corporate and tax structuring (including tax credit and cash grant in lieu structures). We can also assist in all aspects of project debt and equity financings (including Department of Energy loan guarantees), joint ventures, land and transmission rights, FERC and other energy regulatory matters, renewable energy credits, carbon credits, and environmental compliance issues. Our lawyers are experienced in drafting and negotiating all major project contracts and financing documents.
