From brand new projects to the realisation and upgrade of existing assets, our advice helps ensure the success of small, medium and large power projects around the world.
As global demand for power continues to escalate, the success of new and existing projects is critical. With an unparalleled understanding of the market and its commercial drivers, our team advises on some of the largest transactions in the sector, and across projects ranging from 20 MW to over 1.5 GW in virtually every fuel category.
We advise across renewable and conventional power projects throughout their lifecycle.
