A market stalwart for renewable energy projects in the US for decades, Norton Rose Fulbright continues to be one of the most prominent names in the field, advising on financings of first-of-their-kind projects and major developments in the full range of renewable and alternative energy production. Tax equity matters are a particular strength; since the market for tax credit sales opened at the turn of 2023, the firm has handled a large share of related matters. Keith Martin, based in Washington DC, advises a large number of wind and solar energy companies in the US and jointly leads the practice group with New York-based project finance expert Ben Koenigsberg. Also in New York, Todd Alexander acts for lenders and developers of energy and infrastructure projects, and tax partner David Burton is well versed in energy sector matters. Becky Diffen in Austin has a particular focus on the acquisition and divestiture of renewable energy assets, while Marissa Leigh Alcala in Washington DC is another renewables-focused partner to note, particularly for their international project experience.
