Renewable Energy

We provide guidance throughout the entire process 

According to Eurostat, Sweden’s gross final energy consumption derived from renewable sources in 2021 amounted to 60.1% while the EU average was 22.1%. We are all aware of why renewable energy production must increase further. Nevertheless, competing for land rights, regulatory hurdles, and the need to invest substantial funds to realize any form of sizeable renewable energy facility can forestall many projects. The support of our knowledgeable and experienced lawyers can expedite and mitigate many of these hurdles ensuring that your project goes from greenfield to an operating plant.
