Overview
Hydrogen, one of Earth’s most abundant naturally occurring elements, has increasingly demonstrated its promise and profitability in the renewable energy space. However, creating a clean hydrogen market—with the potential to displace or supplement the use of greenhouse gas-emitting fossil fuels—will require a global-scale increase in the development of clean hydrogen production facilities and related supply, offtake, transportation, storage and financing markets. With that comes a series of practical, commercial and legal obstacles.
Our team can help you navigate the many challenges associated with building a clean hydrogen market. We lean on our broad experience, spanning renewable electricity generation; renewable energy tax structuring; petrochemicals; infrastructure; upstream, midstream and downstream oil and gas; energy regulatory matters; environmental law and policy; project financing; project development; and private equity investment structuring, to provide our hydrogen clients with a holistic service offering. We also bring together our leading energy practices from the electrons and molecules sectors to deliver insights into the multifaceted considerations of a clean hydrogen market.
We advise clients on hydrogen-related matters and the Section 45V clean hydrogen production tax credit. Our clean hydrogen team draws on that experience and our work in related energy subindustries, such as wind, solar and battery storage; carbon capture, utilization and storage; renewable natural gas production; and the development of other low carbon fuels such as sustainable aviation fuel and renewable diesel, to help you anticipate potential risks and achieve your desired results.
