Dundas & Wilson’s Environment team provides truly independent strategic advice on renewable energy. In a market where renewable energy installation manufacturers have a vested interest in selling the latest equipment and renewable energy developers cherry pick the best sites, it is hard for businesses to establish whether renewable energy is genuinely right for them. Dundas & Wilson is not tied to any manufacturers or developers and we are duty bound as solicitors to act in the best interests of our clients. We provide that truly independent advice that businesses seek.
Dundas & Wilson is at the forefront of advising clients on renewable energy projects in the UK. Recently, we have helped clients to deliver more than 2.4 Gigawatts of renewable generating capacity in the UK (including wind, hydro, biomass, solar, landfill gas and tidal schemes).
Our diverse client base includes major utility companies, government regulators, blue chip companies, start-up companies, environmental regulators, local authorities and banks.
Our team would work with you to identify and realise the renewable energy potential that exists within your organisation’s assets. Despite well-publicised reductions in government subsidy for renewable energy projects, these still provide an attractive financial return for many businesses. We will identify the practical challenges that exist and help you overcome them. Importantly, if we don’t think that renewable energy is right for you, we will say so.
What we would do for you:
• Prepare, in partnership with you, a renewable energy strategy that will assess the opportunities and how to deliver them in a cost effective way.
• Assist you to implement the strategy, providing the legal support that you will need to procure, operate and maintain renewable energy facilities, utilise associated business opportunities and ensure that you receive the necessary planning, environmental and other permits.
• Provide you with truly independent and expert advice.
Benefits to your business:
• Reduce the company’s energy costs and minimise exposure to potential difficult market issues.
• Meet requirements for companies to report annual emissions and the cost of carbon in business planning.
• Meet requirements for companies to report their renewable energy generation levels.
• Focus on sustainability issues for your business.
• Benefit from Government incentives to develop renewable energy schemes.
