Hogan Lovells is proud to be leading our clients through the multidimensional transition to a low-carbon economy. Our clients are at the forefront of the ongoing transformation of the energy sector. Our lawyers provide commercially-focused advice that is sensitive to our clients’ business ambitions and their needs. We have been involved in a number of “first of a kind” projects, working alongside our clients to innovate and provide strategic advice so as to develop an appropriate commercial framework to capture the value within the energy transition chain.
Our Energy Transition Group is fully engaged with our Power and Renewables, Oil & Gas, Mining, Technology, Mobility and Transportation, and Manufacturing and Industrials practices, and together we deliver a multidisciplinary approach to help our clients successfully navigate the global energy sector’s transformation to net-zero.
Creating long-term partnerships with our clients, we serve as an extension of their in-house team. We support our clients in their efforts to reduce the carbon intensity of their energy supply chain, and embrace the technological innovation that is at the heart of energy transition.
As they can attest, this requires advice from lawyers who have in-depth knowledge of the global energy industry, the regulatory environment, relevant stakeholders and local markets. Lawyers of our global Energy Transition Group can help you with all aspects required for a successful realization of your project.

• Renewables
• Clean / low carbon fuels
• Hydrogen
