Projects & Infrastructure

A Holistic Approach To A Complex Enterprise

Development isn’t linear or predictable. What differentiates a financeable project? Ensuring that the tools and teams are in place – and having the capacity to handle the details and detours – while managing the big picture down to the smallest detail. We take a pragmatic, disciplined approach.

Our Projects & Infrastructure team has decades of experience navigating the complexities of projects across the globe. We help clients accelerate the development of new energy and sustainable infrastructure projects as well as advance innovative business models in the industry.

Our Experience

Energy Funding Matrix Case Study

Recent pieces of legislation, such as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) and Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), have created dozens of grant, loan and financing programs for renewable energies. MLS and Mintz have developed an ESG funding matrix that serves as an aggregate resource to help you leverage federal dollars in your clean and renewable energy efforts.
