Technology sharing
Renewable energy has always been dominant in the Norwegian electricity market. Hydroelectric power is by far the most important, however, wind power now accounts for about 10% of Norwegian power production. The development and operation of new renewable energy is crucial for solving the climate challenges, and the renewables sector is gaining increasing attention. The market depends on the grid, with the development and operation of infrastructure as key factors.
Broad experience
We have a large and broad client base in the renewables field and have extensive experience in assisting the traditional power industry with issues related to the entire industry chain. In wind power, we assist both the manufacturer and supplier side with regulatory issues. We also provide assistance to banks financing a project, or parties who wish to purchase a project.
