Cardiff legal firm Acuity Law has launched a joint venture with Purpose Law aimed at supporting sustainable energy investment and development between the 海角视频 and key international markets.
The new venture, Acuity Law with Purpose, will leverage cross-border legal expertise to connect 海角视频 investors and developers with renewable projects internationally, and vice versa. It will also act as a legal and strategic advisor across project lifecycles - from early-stage investment through to commercialisation.
The joint venture has already initiated discussions on energy infrastructure projects spanning Morocco, Egypt, and the Gulf, as well as investor-backed schemes in Wales and England.
Sean Chapman James, senior associate at Acuity Law, said: 鈥淲ith access to government, sovereign, and private capital, and a team of dual qualified legal and policy experts, Acuity Law with Purpose aims to accelerate the pace of net zero progress through legal innovation and commercial connectivity.鈥
Both firms have growing reputations for legal innovation in the energy sector, including Acuity Law鈥檚 role on the battery storage system development at the former Uskmouth Power Station near Newport. The flagship scheme is transforming a former coal-fired power station into a low-carbon energy storage facility. The firm advised on permitting, land and grid arrangements, and investment structuring.
Tessa Laws, chief executive and founder of international law firm Purpose Law, which is headquartered in London, said: 鈥淪ustainable energy is the greatest global investment opportunity of our generation
鈥淭his joint venture allows us to bring clarity to complexity, using 海角视频 legal frameworks to support bold international ambitions, and help green energy projects from concept to fruition, and beyond.鈥
