The Blakes Power group advises on diverse issues impacting power and energy-related projects, including thermal, gas-fired and combined heat and power (CHP), nuclear, district energy, and renewable energy (including wind, solar, hydro and biomass) projects. We offer a wealth of experience structuring private equity deals with developers involved in renewables projects. We provide strategic advice and legal counsel at each stage of the investment lifecycle: fund formation, fund management and governance, financing, Canadian and international investment-related acquisitions and dispositions, management of portfolio companies, and exit strategies.
Our team is actively engaged in advising clients on the successful financing of capital-intensive projects. We have served as counsel in many of the largest and most complicated project finance transactions across Canada and internationally.
Serving a diverse national and international client base, our Power group also has energy-specific market restructuring, regulatory and government relations expertise, and is often called upon to advise on market policy, rate setting and the rules and procedures of independent system operators governing the wholesale electricity market and the transmission grid.
In advising power generators, marketers, distributors and transmitters on the structure and functioning of the electricity industry throughout Canada, we regularly negotiate a full range of energy-related transactions and ancillary contracts.
