About

Provided by Nixon Peabody LLP

Public power and electric cooperative executives need to access investors and lenders to implement strategic alternatives for serving load growth, this decade and beyond. As an integral part of this billion dollar U.S. electric utility industry, public power and electric co-ops play a critical role in our nation’s economy and in our local communities.

Public power and co-op clients use our trusted legal advice to help with everything from the development and acquisition of interests in generation projects (coal and gas) to environmental permitting. We are known for financing system electric needs—and our critical knowledge of trends and potential roadblocks.

Our strategic thinking and integrated approach combines business, construction, public finance, tax, environmental and regulatory experience in a nationally recognized practice.

We work with:

  • Public power entities
  • Electric cooperatives
