Helping power and utilities companies to transform and grow
Global demand for power generation and access is growing exponentially. The sector continues to undergo transformation and innovation. We advise in all aspects of power and utilities, across complex matters involving market volatility, cost pressures, increasing regulation, energy security, grid connectivity, integrating new power sources, and consumer expectations.
Power and transmission is a huge growth area, presenting vast commercial opportunities together with risks. 770 million people worldwide do not have access to electricity. Achieving full access by 2030 will mean connecting almost 100 million people every year in addition to significant investments on transmission lines.
We can support your business in all aspects of this complex sector, including the development, construction and financing of power projects, matters relating to transmission and distribution networks, interconnectors, wholesale and retail electricity, and regulatory frameworks and reform. We also advise all sides in transactions, financings and disputes.
