Green energy patent attorneys

Green energy is an interdisciplinary field calling for experts in electrical engineering, electro-chemistry, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering and biotechnology. We have patent attorneys with experience in all these different disciplines and can bring together a team of specialists tailored to your particular technology.

We conduct invention harvesting sessions to identify and refine ideas on the cusp of this rapidly advancing technology front. Our team will guide you through the process of obtaining a granted patent: from researching the existing technology; the drafting and filing of the patent application; through to the grant and licensing or enforcement of your patent. We combine in-depth knowledge of patent and intellectual property processes with an expert understanding of cutting-edge green energy technologies. 

Our patent attorneys have significant experience in the following areas.

  • Reneweble energy sources such as wind and solar.
  • Efficient energy distribution, including smart grids and smart homes: we have considerable knowledge in the fields of IoT and AI. 
  • Green energy storage: we have experts in battery storage, electrolytic hydrogen generation and fuel cells.
  • Electric vehicles: we have expertise in a variety of technologies including battery materials, production and charging, vehicle navigation systems, and vehicle-to-vehicle communication.
  • Energy production from waste.
  • Nuclear energy including fusion. 

Funding & the Green Channel

There are a number of funding schemes for green energy intellectual property protection and we alert our clients to relevant opportunities.
