Course Overview

Legal exposure on renewable energy project contracts accumulates through routine decisions taken without advice. The cost of getting project contracts wrong is rarely the judgment; it is the years spent reaching it. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what this part of legal and contractual practice has actually achieved. Mature organisations treat renewable energy project contracts as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. The programme converts the legal and contractual practice discipline from an area of general awareness into a set of repeatable practices. The method assumes participants will be challenged on their handling of project contracts and prepares them for it. Participants who influence renewable energy project contracts without directly controlling it will find the content directly usable. Most organisations already have a policy on project contracts; far fewer can show it working. Participants leave with a first-ninety-days plan for this aspect of legal and contractual practice rather than a set of notes.
