Hot Topics in Energy: DOE Loan Programs
Holland & Knight Program
Please join Holland & Knight's Energy Team and Public Policy & Regulation Group for a webinar that will highlight the current status of the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Loan Programs Office, which has more than $32.5 billion in lending capacity for innovative energy infrastructure projects.
The discussion will highlight today's "hot topics" and most frequently asked questions. These include developments regarding the recent DOE guidance and new rule for commercial-scale critical minerals projects and other technology initiatives released by the Trump Administration in its waning days, as well as the first legislative reforms to the Title XVII loan guarantee program in more than a decade.
The presentation will feature Holland & Knight attorneys and advisors who have been working closely with the Loan Programs Office throughout the past decade during their service at the DOE and in Congress or on behalf of clients. Most recently, our attorneys and advisors led industry efforts to secure the Title XVII improvements included in the Energy Act of 2020. Accordingly, they will provide unique insights into what to expect from the Loan Programs Office in 2021 and beyond with regard to both continued legislative expansion and program utilization.
