Renewable Energy

The iconic Texas landscape is dotted with oil and gas wells, but with Texas now leading the nation in wind-generated energy and experiencing a boom in solar energy development, wind turbines and solar farms are transforming that landscape. The real estate and renewable energy practice groups at Uhl Fitzsimons provide much needed resources to landowners for transactions in this fast-changing industry. Our attorneys have established a comprehensive practice as a leader in the negotiation of wind leases, solar lease agreements and related land use and sale contracts for landowners and developers engaged in renewable energy development. Our attorneys also advise landowners, developers and brokers in the negotiation of surface use agreements relating to batteries and other energy storage facilities, co-located data centers, transmission easements, mineral subordination agreements, drill site designations, and other necessary easement agreements related to a renewable energy project. We can guide clients through the process of negotiating power purchase agreements, the sale of severed solar income streams, and other contracts related to the initial wind, solar or surface site lease agreement.
