Legal specialists dedicated to accelerating the clean energy transition
About CETA Partners
We founded CETA Partners with the aim of assisting clients to bring more clean energy projects online, sooner.
Our team has worked, both as senior in-house counsel and as an external counsel, with project developers, investors, financiers, suppliers, and entrepreneurs on wind and solar projects located around the world from off-grid solar projects in Australia to rooftop installations in Malaysia and windfarms in Europe.
​
We are grounded in the belief we can help accelerate the clean energy transition by providing high-quality services that are more practical and cost-effective than those provided by traditional law firms.
INTERNATIONAL EXPERTISE
Based in Denmark, active all over the world
We have advised on clean energy projects & transactions in 31 countries from the Philippines to Brazil and numerous places in between.
​
We believe that we can offer more cost-effective and practical advice by leveraging our international experience and knowledge of clean energy best practices, and engaging local counsel in a more selective and targeted way.
OUR DIFFERENCE
Purpose Driven

giving 1% of our gross revenue to environmental causes as part of the “1% for the Planet” initiative;
-
offsetting the emissions we generate (primarily through travel) with the Gold Standard. Emissions retirement certificates from 2021 and 2022; and
-
using 100% renewable energy to power our offices in Copenhagen.
