Tom Solomon is a partner in the Energy, Infrastructure and Project Finance Team in the firm’s San Francisco office.
Tom counsels developers and owners of natural gas-fired, wind, solar, biomass and geothermal electric generating facilities and energy storage facilities in the negotiation of physical and virtual PPAs, energy storage agreements, tolling agreements, master trading agreements, renewable energy credit purchase and sale agreements, resource adequacy and other capacity attribute purchase and sale agreements, interconnection agreements, transmission services agreements, and scheduling coordinator services agreements.
