Wind Farm Solicitors and Renewable Energy

Our team of specialist wind farm solicitors and renewable energy lawyers advise on projects relating to onshore and offshore wind farms and other renewable energy facilities.  

In relation to wind farms, our specialist wind farm solicitors are involved at all stages of a project, from the drafting and negotiation of documentation to secure land interests and easements, by option, agreement or lease, to the drafting and negotiation of documentation for the construction and commissioning of the wind turbines.

Our wind farm solicitors advise on the environmental and ecological impact of wind farms, including offshore wind turbines, and on all related planning issues.  We also advise on agricultural law issues relating to wind farms, for example agri-environmental schemes, single farm payment schemes, agricultural tenancies, crop loss and mines and minerals.  In addition, for offshore wind farms we advise on potential compensation claims in the context of alleged interruption to or loss of fishing rights caused by the offshore wind farm and the general interaction of marine consents in the marine environment.

With wind turbines becoming an increasingly common feature of the rural and coastal landscape, our experience in the fast growing renewable energy sector makes us the choice for clients on these types of projects.

Our involvement with other renewable energy projects includes advice relating to the development and commissioning of waste to energy facilities.
