Energie & Industrie

Investeringen in wind- en zonne-energie, bioraffinage en grootschalige energieopslag zijn niet langer weg te denken. De CO2-uitstoot moet worden teruggebracht, het productieproces moet dus zuiniger en hiervoor zal de industrie flink moeten investeren.
Energie & Industrie

Het Energieakkoord, het Klimaatakkoord van Parijs en technische ontwikkelingen beheersen de energiesector. Het ervaren Energieteam van Houthoff signaleert de commerciële kansen die dit met zich brengt. Wij zijn binnen de energiesector (inter)nationaal erkend en staan onder andere energiebedrijven, overheidsinstanties, producenten, investeerders en grote energieverbruikers bij om slim en succesvol in de energiesector te kunnen bewegen. Ons Energieteam heeft hierbij een marktleidende positie verworven op het gebied van duurzame energie.

Onze expertise binnen de energiesector

M&A-transacties binnen zowel de olie- en gasindustrie als de duurzame energie hebben vaak complexe structuren. Houthoff adviseert onder meer multinationals, private-equitykantoren en overheden over transacties op de energiemarkt. Bedrijven in de nichemarkt ‘van afval tot energie’ zijn gebaat bij diepgaande (fullservice) kennis over het regelgevend kader. Ons Energieteam heeft die specialistische kennis en treedt op als adviseur in uiteenlopende zaken binnen deze niche. Nederland biedt steeds meer ruimte voor innovatieve offshore windprojecten. Onze energiespecialisten hebben een belangrijke positie verkregen op dit gebied. Zij staan zowel ontwikkelaars als financiers van grote windprojecten bij.

De energiesector begeeft zich op het raakvlak van publiek– en privaatrecht. In ons Energieteam zitten daarom specialisten op het gebied van onder meer energierecht, ruimtelijk- en economisch bestuursrecht, milieurecht, M&A, procesrecht (inclusief cassatie), aanbestedingsrecht, strafrecht en mededingingsrecht. Ons ongeëvenaarde track record binnen de energiesector bevestigt onze sectorkennis. Wij leveren niet alleen de hoogste kwaliteit, maar kijken altijd verder dan het probleem en bieden toekomstbestendige oplossingen.

ESG & Duurzaamheid
De transitie naar een duurzame samenleving is een van de grootste uitdagingen waar het bedrijfsleven voor staat. Een duidelijke visie en strategie voor uw bedrijf is essentieel om duurzame groei te garanderen.
Duurzame Energie
Steeds vaker kunnen projecten voor hernieuwbare energie, waaronder zonne-, wind- en bio-energie, effectief concurreren met opwekkingsopties op basis van fossiele brandstoffen. Dit wakkert de voortdurend toenemende investeringen in projecten en technologieën voor hernieuwbare energie verder aan.
