This CLE course will guide renewable energy counsel in structuring private equity transactions in renewable energy. The panel will discuss the impact of the coronavirus on private equity transactions and opportunities for private equity funds for distressed projects, purchase price considerations, tax structures, deal terms, and unique financing and restructuring options.
Private equity transactions play an active role in the financing, development, and operations of renewable energy projects. In light of the coronavirus pandemic, renewable energy counsel must recognize critical issues in private equity transactions and develop methods of structuring deals to protect client interests.
In recent years, private equity and infrastructure funds have increased their focus on renewable energy assets. Although the coronavirus pandemic impacts many projects, there are opportunities for distressed projects, with many becoming the target for private equity funds. Counsel to renewable energy clients should have a working knowledge of private equity as a finance option, and private equity counsel should understand the structural nuances of each transaction.
Also, counsel must consider critical factors relating to the CARES Act and continued IRS guidance in structuring or modifying private equity transactions in renewable energy.
Listen as our authoritative panel discusses the advantages of private equity over other financing options for renewable energy projects, purchase price considerations, tax structures, deal terms, and unique financing and restructuring options.
