Harness the opportunities of battery storage
Battery storage, as the leading technology for short-duration storage, is becoming increasingly important in balancing electricity supply and demand, as intermittent renewable energy comes to dominate energy systems. Our team provides expert legal guidance to help you capitalise on opportunities in the battery storage market. This is particularly important in the context of new challenges presented by grid connection competition, complexities in forming a bankable revenue stack and the increasing need to design co-located solutions.
A highly commercial set of lawyers, who bring wide and varied experience to their practice. We use them for M&A, financing, PPAs, regulatory and structuring advice, and across the team they provide invaluable support.
