Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP

Pillsbury is an international law firm with a particular focus on the energy, technology, real estate & construction, and financial sectors. Recognized as one of the most innovative law firms by Financial Times and one of the top firms for client service by BTI Consulting, Pillsbury and its lawyers are highly regarded for their forward-thinking approach, their enthusiasm for collaborating across disciplines and their authoritative commercial awareness.

As the first AmLaw 100 firm to launch a dedicated hydrogen practice, Pillsbury has a deep understanding of hydrogen-based energy technologies and is advising clients across all sectors on its vast potential. Our team has advised on large project development and finance transactions, environmental and tax strategies, and tactics that help monetize hydrogen technologies and position hydrogen projects to take advantage of this burgeoning market.  We are working with multiple clients on private investment into hydrogen production and transportation projects and ventures, as well as securing government funds for new demonstration projects.  We are deeply familiar with the fast- moving regulatory developments in the hydrogen space, such as proposals for new FERC and PHSMA regulation of hydrogen transportation.

We have also assisted several organizations in formulating federal policy proposals for the hydrogen economy and are continuing to drive hydrogen related public policy efforts at the federal and state levels.  We also have in-depth knowledge of hydrogen policies, strategies in roadmaps in every country on the globe and are closely following every development on the global market. As hydrogen technologies advance and become more cost-competitive, we are positioned with market intelligence to serve industry participants driving this next phase of growth.

Pillsbury has also created and maintains The Hydrogen Map (www.thehydrogenmap.com), the first public resource tracking the development of hydrogen projects worldwide.

Pillsbury uses its expertise in the energy industry sector, including its market-leading renewables and nuclear practices, to support our work in the hydrogen sector.  Ranked as Tier 1 by both Chambers USA and Chambers Global, Pillsbury possesses the world’s top nuclear energy team—a trailblazing practice with a 50-year track record full of firsts. We’re also a leader in the nuclear hydrogen space, having led the Nuclear Hydrogen Initiative (https://nuclear-hydrogen.org) for the past year and having advised to date on three of the four nuclear hydrogen projects proposed in the United States.  On the renewables side, our team of energy and finance lawyers have also advised on pioneering renewable power generation and infrastructure asset transactions for decades. With our clients, we have worked on projects that collectively have brought tens of thousands of megawatts of solar-and wind-generated power onto electric grids. Our work spans billion-dollar transmission lines, innovative off-shore wind developments, large solar and wind farms portfolios, and pumped hydro-energy storage projects.  Pillsbury is currently advising on numerous renewable hydrogen projects.
