Energy efficiency is a complex and highly-political area. Businesses need specialist advice on the relevant legislation, contractual documents, statutory guidance and requirements from the independent regulators, Ofgem and the OFT.

Our lawyers have expert knowledge of energy efficiency policy and regulation and provide clear, effective solutions to our clients. We have particular expertise in the Green Deal, ECO, Energy Performance Contracts and Energy Performance Certificates.
