Adam Conway, Chair of the Renewable Energy Transactions Practice Group & Energy Partner, recently sat down with Walter Thorne, Market President and Publisher of the Albany Business Review, to share insights on navigating New York State’s renewable energy space and how businesses can be successful in this process. Couch White specifically created the Renewable Energy Transactions practice area to be a full-service legal team for companies looking to do business in New York and rely on a team of legal experts to advise on real estate, energy, and permitting to make sure the projects are good investments. In the Table of Experts article in the Albany Business Review, Adam shares, “There are success stories so far, and there are good examples of programs and projects that New York state has developed from scratch that have led to real, measurable, impactful project deployments that will put us on a path to achieve some of these goals that we’ve set out for ourselves. It’s worthwhile to appreciate the successes and understand that one of the key ways we’re going to hit some of these targets is to continue to put projects in the ground. We have to continue with the momentum if these projects and these programs and these targets are going to be successful.”
