Luther Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft mbH's environmental and planning expertise is regularly called upon in the context of large energy transition projects, including photovoltaics, wind energy and green hydrogen, and applied in planning approval and authorisation procedures as well as in relation to climate protection law, nature conservation law and decarbonisation. The team routinely cooperates with its energy and procurement teams, which equips the practice with additional expertise in emission control and planning permission procurement for urban and district developments. This is complemented by expertise in mining and space law as well as in ESG and tax issues; for the latter, Sabrina Desens is one of the key contacts. The practice is headed by Stefan Altenschmidt, who is experienced in climate protection and emissions trading law, and water and waste law specialist Gernot-Rüdiger Engel.
