Quadrant Chambers is delighted to be supporting the first Legal and Commercial Conference from Renewable UK. 

Chris Smith QC will be joining the panel on Disputes and legal pitfalls in Waste to Energy and Offshore Wind

Gemma Morgan will be joining Contract risk allocation: force majeure, suspension and termination

Gaurav Sharma will be speaking on The energy transition and the 3D's – how the law is enabling Decarbonisation, Digitisation and Decentralisation

Why now?

The week after COP26 the sector will be abuzz with ideas to implement the net zero strategy and make the most of the opportunity. There has never been a more exciting time for renewable energy in the UK. The UK Government has enshrined ambitious targets into law, published a whitepaper with steps to deliver net zero, and the budget is being looked at to ensure that decarbonisation is not only an ideal, but an achievable goal within the next few decades. What role will the law play in enabling all this, to ensure that the sector takes advantage of the opportunities and trends of the energy transition?
 

What will be covered?

• How to get from net zero aspirations to implementation in the year of COP26 and beyond
• Legal trends in enabling decarbonisation, decentralisation and digitalisation
• Developing risk allocations and investable and bankable deal structures for new technologies to attract private investment and finance
• The effective management of entitlement and disputes in the supply chain
• Contract risk allocation
• Disputes and legal pitfalls in Waste to Energy and Offshore Wind.
