Energy: Power (Transactional)

With robust experience in the power industry, we are a go-to firm for clients in their complex and innovative power projects and transactions. We have one of the most active power practices in Canada and are known for leading transactional and regulatory counsel, advising on projects covering all forms of renewable energy and power generation technologies.

From initial commercial arrangements and procurement, through to permitting, financing and regulatory compliance, we know how clients can navigate project challenges and deal hurdles.

Our team has a distinguished history of working on many innovative, first-of-kind projects. Our decades spent working in the industry gives us deep understanding of the drivers at play across transactions. Our clients include developers, project sponsors, investors, lenders, governments and Indigenous peoples.

Our team acts for some of the largest utilities in Canada and has considerable experience in matters ranging from power generation and transmission, to distribution and retail. Notably, our experience covers regulatory processes necessary to obtain various licenses and approvals for the development, generation, transmission, distribution and sale of electricity. We often appear before regulators, including on rate applications, licensing matters and facilities applications.

We work with our clients wherever their business takes them. Through our integrated team in Canada and New York, we have advised on transactions around the world.
