With offices in 30 major business and financial centres in 23 countries, Linklaters specialises in advising the world’s leading companies, financial institutions, governments and regulatory authorities on their most challenging transactions and assignments. We have one of the world’s leading environment teams with internationally recognised capability and experience in advising clients on the challenges and opportunities climate change presents. We offer an in-depth knowledge of emissions trading and have long experience of advising corporates, hedge funds and financial institutions on this innovative and increasingly influential market whether that be under the EU ETS or the Kyoto Protocol and related jurisprudence of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). As one of only a handful of firms to have appeared at the UNFCCC negotiations in Nairobi in November 2006, our firm is widely acknowledged for its commitment and expertise in advising on the risks and legal obligations entailed by climate change. We are an active contributor to the dialogue between industry and government on how the carbon capture regulatory regime should develop. Recently, we advised a leading multi-national energy company on regulatory compliance issues arising under existing EU and UK environmental regimes from a major carbon capture and storage project.
