As energy industry participants explore options for managing their carbon output and transitioning to new technologies, our lawyers have been helping clients in the oil and gas as well as power and renewables sectors in their efforts to make these changes while meeting their needs for fuel and power.

We bring a team of lawyers who are well-versed in marketplace trends, regulation, environmental regulation and new technology across the energy value chain.
