Cleantech
Driven by the combined forces of climate
change, soaring global demand for energy resources and changing
environmental policy and standards at every level, investments in
renewable energy and other clean technologies continue to grow. SNR
Denton is uniquely situated to help its clients as they develop
next-generation technologies, make financial and strategic
investments in emerging companies in the sector and navigate a
rapidly changing regulatory landscape.
We have been working with clients in the
financial, industrial and technical sectors to build the
foundations of an alternative-energy economy for more than a decade
and have been advising on energy law for over 70 years. Our
cross-departmental team includes the architects of carbon trading,
pioneers in renewable-energy project regulation and siting,
strategists behind greenhouse-gas regulation and carbon
monetization and the intellectual property and venture-capital
counsel who have helped launch some of the most successful and
prominent leaders in the New Energy Economy.
There is no aspect of the cleantech industry
with which we are not fully engaged. From precedent setting
wave-energy projects to federal lobbying on energy-related matters
and drafting climate change legislation, clean natural-gas
transmission to electric vehicles, smart-grid implementation
strategies to development of the largest solar-energy array in the
US, biofuels investments in Tanzania to anaerobic digestion in the
UK -- SNR Denton professionals are working on these and dozens of
other industry-leading projects today.
