Euan Bremner – Burges Salmon LLP

The Bristol-based power practice at Burges Salmon LLP is described as being ‘truly of the industry, with a genuine passion for it’ and has a focus on innovative projects in the sector. The team has strong capabilities in the sector, advising such notable clients as Bristol City Council on complex projects of value in the billions. Renewables are an area of focus for the team; Euan Bremner is noted as being ‘one of renewable energy’s biggest acts and a man you want on your side’, whilst Nick Churchward brings waste-to-energy expertise to the cohort. The team has impressive experience in floating wind work, in particular; it is currently advising on the Erebus project, which is set to be the UK’s largest. Ian Truman has expertise in nuclear work. Energy storage is another specialism and the team is noted as ‘standing above the legal industry pile on’ in this area. Decarbonisation and renewables expert Ross Fairley leads the team alongside Ian Salter and James Phillips.
