Waste to energy projects cover turning non-recyclable waste into energy through facilities such as waste-to-energy plants, using processes like incineration or anaerobic digestion. A solicitor in this area handles the commercial and regulatory steps: negotiating EPCs and offtake agreements, securing planning consent, applying for environmental permits, and coordinating with developers, lenders, waste companies, and utility partners to meet funding, construction, and operation milestones. The work is shaped by environmental, planning, and energy market rules that govern project viability.
The solicitor drafts and negotiates project contracts (construction, operation and maintenance, offtake, and supply agreements), advises on planning permissions and environmental permits, coordinates with regulators such as the Environment Agency, and supports financing and grid connection processes. They also manage risk related to waste supply, performance guarantees, and decommissioning obligations, ensuring compliance with environmental and planning conditions and securing appropriate warranties and safety standards.
