Joe has over a decade of domestic and international experience. 

He focuses almost exclusively on all legal real estate aspects of clean energy, grid support and related projects including wind (onshore and offshore), solar (ground based and rooftop), tidal, biomass, anaerobic digestion, battery storage, electric vehicle charging and interconnectors as well as securing funding for, and selling, such projects, and advising funders and purchasers of such projects.

Joe has used his experience to advise on projects which do not ‘fit the mold’. He has developed from scratch various ownership models and land right documentation (due to the infancy of the market at the time) for electric vehicle charging points as well as facility/draw down contracts to enable the roll out of thousands of charging points across a large landowner’s UK portfolio. He has also led on multi-jurisdictional clean energy projects adapting documents to different regulatory environments and cultures. 

Jurisdiction: England & Wales
