About the Course

Introduction

This CLE webinar will guide renewable energy and real estate counsel through the title-curative issues and documentation strategies that commonly determine whether a site can be developed and financed. The panel will discuss identifying and resolving title defects, addressing competing interests (leases, easements, liens, restrictive covenants), and managing mineral/subsurface and access constraints that can delay or derail solar, wind, and storage projects.

Description

Renewable projects often depend on long term leasehold and easement rights rather than fee ownership, and project counsel must navigate a complex diligence process. The panel will discuss practical approaches for triaging title and survey findings, selecting curative actions that fit the project schedule, and coordinating with counterparties, title companies, and lenders to support reliable site control.

Listen as our panel discusses renewable energy leasing and title curative work, with best practices to help counsel move projects from diligence to construction.
