Energy and Renewables
Providing expert advice and end-to-end support across the full asset lifecycle.
The UK’s energy sector is a dynamic and evolving industry, shaped by macroeconomic forces and, increasingly, political events. Meeting Net Zero targets, reforming the grid, and securing reliable, affordable energy for consumers is critical to ensuring the UK economy remains stable, sustainable, and globally competitive.
We support our clients with robust, practical and tailored advice, enabling informed decision‑making in an energy market shaped by ongoing macroeconomic, political, and regulatory change.
Across renewables, utilities, oil and gas, and nuclear, organisations face heightened scrutiny, an increasingly complex operating environment, and mounting financial pressure, making the delivery of tangible results more demanding than ever.
Our team of energy specialists works alongside you to navigate this complexity. We combine deep financial expertise with strong commercial insight borne from years of experience and cross-departmental knowledge to identify strategic growth opportunities, manage risk, and maximise value.
To meet your unique challenges, we can bring together the wider Buzzacott team, including specialists across transaction services, audit, tax, restructuring, risk, and advisory services. By drawing on this integrated expertise, we support energy businesses through the full lifecycle, from project development and financing, through growth, transformation and optimisation, to complex transactions and change events, ensuring advice is joined‑up, pragmatic, and focused on delivering outcomes in a highly regulated, capital‑intensive environment.
Our services
We provide tailored transaction advisory support to enable acquisitions and financing of energy projects with a specialism in renewable energy assets. Our financial and tax services provide investors and lenders with the clarity and confidence to progress through the transaction while highlighting and mitigating key risks.
Where we are not acting as sell-side adviser, we can prepare vendor due diligence reports covering financial and tax positions, giving buyers confidence and helping to keep the sales process on track.
Whether you are an institutional investor managing a portfolio or a business owner looking to exit, disposing of energy assets demands a well-managed process that maximises value. We help position and market your business to the right buyers, project manage the sales process from initial engagement through to completion, and work to secure the best possible outcome. On the buy-side, we help acquirers make disciplined investments that deliver growth and meaningful synergies.
We design and implement holding and financing structures for portfolios, balancing commercial objectives with tax efficiency and compliance. We tailor solutions to diverse investor profiles, including institutional, private equity and charity/impact mandates.
We're here to support you with complex tax matters, helping you implement strategies, adapt to legislative changes, and review your tax position with hands-on support and care.
Understanding value is critical to the success of these schemes. Our in-house valuations specialists can support you with the process.
Our audit services are designed to address the unique complexities of energy businesses. We provide sector-specific assurance, ensuring that financial statements accurately reflect performance, and comply with regulatory requirements.
ESG reporting is increasingly vital for energy companies seeking to demonstrate responsible stewardship and attract investment. Our ESG reporting services deliver comprehensive analysis and transparent disclosure of key sustainability metrics. We help clients benchmark their performance, conduct gap analysis to highlight improvement opportunities, ensure compliance with evolving regulatory requirements, and clearly communicate their ESG achievements to stakeholders.
