Advisory services for the Renewable Energy sector

Our renewable energy group provides M&A transaction support, due diligence, project and structured finance advice to project sponsors, bidders, investors and borrowers.

Our team has experience of all major renewable energy technologies employed in Europe, the US and the Pacific region, and has advised on projects with a value in excess of US$1 billion. Backed by a global network of professionals with experience in renewable energy and sustainable development schemes operating in more than 30 countries around the world, we are able to offer a fully integrated service to our clients.

Each project is run by an experienced director who selects the best team for our client's project based on their blend of skills and experience. By drawing on our international network, we can bring a global perspective to a project, while retaining a strong regional focus.

We recognize that projects require strong financial advice to deliver appropriate, economically viable structures that meet stakeholder needs. On all of our projects, our approach relies on financial experience backed by strong sector knowledge and a proven track record.
