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.

How private equity and infrastructure capital investment in renewable energy assets is helping to achieve the UK’s Net Zero targets
In June 2019, the UK became the first major economy to legislate a legally binding greenhouse gas emissions target for 2050, shifting the statutory ambition from an 80% reduction to net zero. Critically, delivery at the pace and scale required is increasingly becoming a capital mobilisation challenge, not just a policy design one.
