Comprehensive Financial & Tax Solutions for Energy Transactions

Your Trusted Partner for Energy Transactions

At Leo Berwick, we provide specialized financial and tax advisory services tailored to the energy sector. Our expertise spans across conventional and renewables power (generation, storage, distribution and transmission), oil and gas (extraction, production, transportation, storage and distribution), well-head services, district energy and energy retail, ensuring that we deliver customized, tax-efficient strategies for our clients.

The energy asset class is rapidly evolving. In addition to traditional sectors like utilities and conventional energy, it now includes businesses that are critical for long-term energy security—such as LNG, renewables, hydrogen and circular economy initiatives like energy-from-waste. The sector is also being transformed by the digital revolution with investments in data centers, as well as by shifts in onshoring and domestic industrial growth. At Leo Berwick, we provide specialized financial and tax expertise in these fast-growing areas, ensuring our clients maximize investment value and navigate complex regulatory landscapes.

We eliminate traditional deal advisor silos by offering integrated tax advisory, financial due diligence, financial modeling and strategic insights, enabling clients to optimize capital deployment, reduce tax liabilities, and accelerate returns. Whether you’re evaluating an acquisition, a capital investment, or a restructuring, Leo Berwick is your first call for energy advisory.
