Industries

GordonDerr is on the leading edge of the renewable and alternative energy industry with experience representing clients across a broad spectrum of technologies including wind, electric, and co-generation power; alternative/bio-fuels production; carbon sequestration; waste to steam incinerators and refineries; and the associated environmental impacts of traditional resources.

The firm recognizes that the key issues affecting successful alternative energy project development demand not only a deep understanding of the critical land use, environmental, and real estate issues of the law, but of the highly nuanced practical, political and community relations aspects of complex, large-scale energy projects. Keen analysis and innovative mitigation strategies allow clients to comply with the law; assess the environmental impacts of existing and planned activities; manage the consequences of government and regulatory actions; and, when necessary, litigate to establish or defend rights.

GordonDerr's experience includes due diligence, regulatory analysis, compliance review, permit acquisition and expediting, negotiation of mitigation, defense and appeals. Our broad range of public- and private-sector clients includes developers, corporations, municipalities, institutions, energy companies, cities, counties, ports, and citizens groups.
