Resources and Renewables
Experts across Australia’s energy mix, from explorers and producers, through to renewable energy project owners and developers
We provide a unique offering, made possible with our extensive knowledge of both the resources and renewables industries. Since our group’s establishment over 20 years ago, we have evolved to offer a whole-of-project practice, with transactional, commercial, and regulatory teams collaborating on projects to always provide integrated, end-to-end service for our resources and energy clients.
We do not just work for the industry, we are part of it, and have been for decades. We have an unmatched knowledge of the industry, key stakeholders, communities and projects across Australia.
Always taking the time to understand your business
We make it our business to not only be across sector developments, but to always take the time to keep our clients ahead of the curve so that they can evolve alongside these developments.
The resources and renewables industries are intrinsically linked. We use our expertise in these sectors to support our clients through Australia’s energy transition with the development of significant critical minerals and metals, and renewable energy projects while also continuing to support our long standing traditional resources clients as they navigate the increasingly complex regulatory and market environment.
We possess the capability that enables us to grow with our clients and to help secure strategic investments and opportunities that protect and maximise value for the long term.
