We provide specialised advice to public and private energy and utili-ties companies, as well as Danish and international institutional investors, major banks and other financial institutions and institutional lenders and other industrial actors.
We offer comprehensive legal support across various areas for clients involved in energy and infrastructure projects and investments.
We play a key role in some of Denmark's largest and most prominent infrastructure projects, including traditional infrastructure projects such as roads, bridges and hospitals, as well as the structuring of, construction of and investments in new energy and renewable projects, such as on- and offshore wind, water and solar photovoltaic (PV), CCUS, Power-to-X and biogas projects.
With deep expertise in construction law, we guide clients through all phases of their projects, including contract negotiation, planning, and risk management. We ensure clarity and fairness in contracts, help clients mitigate risks and ensure that projects are delivered on time and within budget.
Acting for institutional investors, infrastructure funds, and industrial actors, we advise on investments in renewable and other energy projects such as wind parks and solar photovoltaic (PV) projects. We provide in-depth knowledge of evolving regulatory frameworks, and the business models of the parties involved, facilitating partnerships between investors and operators.
We understand the business model and focus of the parties and have been at the front of novel developments for lucrative partnerships between investors, public authorities and industrial operators (including construction, O&M, partnership agreements, joint venture agreements, bid conduct agreement, PPAs etc.).
We are specialists within project financing, assisting clients with structuring deals and securing capital through debt, equity, and hybrid models. In response to the growing demand for sustainable financing, we help issue Green Bonds for environmentally friendly projects.
We have a strong track record within infrastructure and energy-related financing, offering extensive expertise in both financing law and transactional aspects. Our team is highly skilled in advising lenders on structuring and negotiating project finance deals, with a particular focus on safeguarding their interests and ensuring robust security packages for energy-related investments.
When disputes arise, we offer experienced litigation and mediation services to resolve contract disagreements and regulatory challenges. Our expertise extends to complex regulatory disputes and high-profile cases involving public law issues. For many years, our litigation team has amassed extensive theoretical and practical knowledge within a wide range of industry sectors in the energy and infrastructure area. We represent clients in negotiations with supervisory authorities, in arbitrations, and in cases brought before supervisory authorities and the Danish courts. We have in-depth knowledge of developments in the area, the regulatory framework, and the key players in each sector.
Real estate law is another key component of our services, ensuring that clients navigate land titles, zoning regulations, and environmental compliance to mitigate risks. We also provide support in securing financing and managing public-private partnerships.
We are also skilled in handling competition law, helping clients navigate complex transactions and merger filings, ensuring compliance with antitrust laws and securing regulatory approvals.
