HSF renewable energy expert jumps to DLA Piper

A renewable energy expert from Herbert Smith Freehills has transitioned to a senior associate role at DLA Piper.

Maddison Hardiman has worked extensively in the renewable energy sector. He has represented buyers and sellers on major renewable platforms, single asset divestments and acquisitions, and energy transition business. His recent work includes advising the Victorian State Electricity Commission (SEC) on its investment in the Melbourne Renewable Energy Hub.

"We're currently advising on more renewable energy deals than any other law firm globally and continue to play a leading role in assisting our clients to execute their energy transition objectives across Australia and the broader APAC region”, corporate energy partner Chris Mitchell said. “The addition of a senior lawyer of Maddison's experience and capability, along with the promotions of Simone [Bajraszewski] and Lisa [Huynh], adds further depth and strength to our renewable energy team and ensures we continue to provide our clients with the expertise and experience to help them achieve their commercial objectives in a dynamic sector".

Hardiman will practise from Melbourne.
