Climate Finance

Our market-leading climate finance team supports global clients on a range of transactional and advisory matters both in Ireland and internationally.

The sectors which we cover include:

voluntary carbon market for verified emission reductions/removals
compliance carbon market (including the market-mechanisms of Article 6 of the UN Paris Agreement)
carbon project development and finance, including nature conservation/restoration as well as engineered GHG removals
renewable energy infrastructure both in Ireland and worldwide
decarbonisation of hard-to-abate sectors such as heavy-industry, transportation (including commercial aviation) and the built environment
sustainable aviation fuel finance and offtake
biodiversity markets and credits
clean-tech venture capital

Not only do we advise on ESG obligations and disclosures,– we also represent clients on projects that have a meaningful impact on emission reductions/removals, sustainable economic development, biodiversity enhancement and improvement of livelihoods. We pride ourselves on being legal advisors to clients who share our values – these values include taking all measures necessary to align economic development with the goals of the Paris Agreement and the Montreal Convention on Biological Diversity. As well as private sector clients we are advising governments and trade bodies on jurisdictional-level projects and the emerging international law framework.
