Energy: Electricity (Transactional)

About

Provided by Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP

Global economic growth demands reliable supplies of energy. As both a key underpinning of modern society and a basic consumer good, energy is an inherently challenging and political business. The effect of market forces and impact of politics can be more pronounced, and more immediate, than in many businesses.

Our team serves the electric power sector (conventional, nuclear, renewable, including wind and solar, and transmission), the oil and gas sector (upstream, midstream, and liquefied natural gas, refining, and petrochemicals), the water industry, and financial institutions, investment funds, project developers, state-owned enterprises, and public-private partnerships in the energy sector.

Our global energy practice is renowned for its work on multibillion-dollar energy transactions. Often involving multinational investment, first in country, or sector undertakings or novel structures, these deals encompass the development, financing, acquisition, and divestiture of both conventional and unconventional resources. Every major transaction is supported across disciplines by our corporate, regulatory, tax, environmental, antitrust, litigation, labor, employment, and benefits lawyers.
