Cost-effective, reliable electric-power generation has become increasingly complex and challenging due to dramatic changes in market forces relating to the development of US oil and natural-gas shale plays, the expansive development of renewable energy and storage technologies, and growing opposition to both traditional generation and large-scale renewable projects. These factors have resulted in the frequent turnover of large portfolios of distressed generating assets, power-plant conversions and decommissioning, and challenges to virtually every type of energy infrastructure project.
Barclay Damon has assembled a multidisciplinary team with extensive experience in energy-related project development, environmental and regulatory law, real property tax, valuation, real estate, litigation, finance, tax, and mergers and acquisitions to address the challenges facing our clients in the electric-power sector.
Our team represents independent power producers, renewable-energy companies, private-equity firms, investment banks, and asset-management firms in the siting, development, conversion, operation, and acquisition of all forms of electric-power generation, including renewables (hydro, wind, solar, biomass, and battery storage), natural gas, oil, coal, and nuclear.
