Energy & Natural Resources

Cozen O’Connor’s Energy Practice guides clients through complex regulatory approvals by state public utility commissions and other federal and state regulatory agencies, and represents clients in energy-related transactions, litigation, enforcement actions, and regulatory proceedings. We represent public utilities (natural gas, electric, transportation, and telecommunication), offshore wind developers, infrastructure investment funds, power producers, renewable and clean energy companies, competitive retail suppliers, municipalities and municipal authorities, large institutional and manufacturing consumers, technology companies, and corporate clients.

The firm is an industry leader in combined heat and power (CHP) projects, an increasingly viable option for large energy users to reduce costs, become energy resilient, and generate revenue. Our attorneys advise a number of solar, wind energy, hydro-electric, and biofuels companies, and we regularly represent utility companies, renewable and clean energy developers, manufacturers, investors, lenders, and energy consumers.

Members of our team bring a unique perspective to advising clients through experience that includes serving as associate general regulatory counsel for a publicly traded energy company as well as vice president-law for a subsidiary of one of the largest investor-owned electric systems in the United States.
