(Leading lawyers)With a particularly strong development and financing practice, McDermott Will & Emery LLP‘s global energy project finance group is sought out by clients for advice on the whole range of renewable energy, including wind and solar power, biomass, geothermal, and renewable natural gas projects. In Los Angeles, co-chair and former president of the American Wind Energy Association Edward Zaelke stands out with his in-depth knowledge of project finance and private equity transactions, while Miami-based co-chair Philip Tingle is well known as energy tax expert in the renewables sector with broad experience in representing buyers and sellers of electric generation facilities, including utilities, power producers and financial institutions. Carl Fleming in Washington D.C. is especially recommended for his expertise on debt and tax equity financing, as well as his niche knowledge on zinc battery projects. In Miami, tax expert Heather Cooper is also recommended for her experience in restructurings and M&A, as well as tax incentive financing related to the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. Praised by clients for his ‘huge knowledge and high commitment’, New York’s James Salerno regularly advises multinational corporate and business entities in the US, Latin America, and Sub-Saharan Africa on all stages of development for construction and financing of renewables projects.
