Clean Energy

Working with a wide range of businesses involved in developing and investing in clean energy sources, as well as those organisations wanting to access the benefits it can provide.

We work across the UK and internationally, with longstanding experience of all clean energy (and broader renewables) technologies including energy storage and grid balancing, supporting our clients from project inception, design and financing, through operational delivery, onto refinancing and sale.

How we can assist you:

Development, finance and operational delivery of new projects;
Sale, purchase and refinancing of existing projects;
Post-investment advice Inc. project / performance optimisation and restructuring; and
Ongoing advice concerning contract implementation, dispute avoidance and resolution.

Our expertise and commitment to the sector translates into real, up-to-date knowledge about the challenges clients face and how to overcome them: including land assembly, securing property rights, development consents, grid connections, generation licences, PPAs and technology performance issues.

Testimonial

“The Ashfords team are extremely capable, reliable and commercial. They understand our business and the nature of an in-house role. These attributes mean that, where needed, I can trust them to deal with my internal commercial clients on complex and time critical matters. Their attitude to client service, including understanding our current and future service needs (both in the legal and commercial arenas), make them a valued partner.”

Pennon Group
