Representative Engagements

The firm advises clients in all aspects of structuring the economic and governance arrangements among owners of energy projects and companies. This includes contractual arrangements (such as joint development agreements); the choice and structuring of project entities (such as limited liability companies, general and limited partnerships, and other entities); and the allocation of control, funding obligations, and economic rights, including preferred equity and rate of return flip arrangements often used by private equity and other financial investors. The firm has represented clients in matters involving co-developers, public-private partnerships, and private equity and other types of financial investors in all stages of the life cycle of energy projects and companies, from initial start-up through later stage capital raising to implementing exit and other monetization strategies. Dickstein Shapiro’s capabilities in this area also include advising on the regulatory and tax implications of such structures.
