Understanding project finance in the US

As US project finance laws continue to evolve, companies are encouraged to stay abreast of developments and trends within the space.

In a Q&A published in The Legal 500 Country Comparative Guides 2024, Robert da Silva Ashley, a partner in DLA Piper’s Projects and Global Finance (Americas) practice, discusses the current state of project finance in the US, including legal fundamentals, trends in ownership structures, collateral and credit support, and private equity’s increasing role across all tiers of projects’ capital stacks.

The chapter further explores energy transition project investments and financings supercharged by the recently passed Inflation Reduction Act, as well as provides comparative legal insights on project finance throughout the Americas.
