Joint Development Agreements in Renewable Energy Projects

This CLE webinar will guide counsel in structuring joint development agreements (JDAs) for renewable energy projects. The panel will examine the critical terms for JDAs and discuss key considerations, including partner suitability and approaches to agreement structure. The panel will also address disputes that can arise between JDA parties and steps to minimize such conflicts.

As energy demands and technology continue to evolve, more companies are working jointly to share responsibilities in connection with developing, constructing, and financing renewable energy projects.

When considering a JDA, counsel to each party should evaluate the suitability of the JDA partner(s), the parties' objectives, and the agreement structure. Counsel should understand what key terms and provisions to include in the JDA to plan for the unexpected and minimize the risk of unintended consequences.

Listen as our authoritative panel examines the preliminary considerations, such as partner suitability and structure considerations, and key provisions, including the scope of the parties' joint development activities, their performance obligations, funding commitments, and termination and withdrawal rights.
