Biography

Kenneth has extensive experience in structuring, negotiating and drafting complex energy infrastructure and service contracts across generation, transmission, distribution and supply.

He regularly advises developers, utilities, contractors and funders on the components required to create robust project income streams ranging from power purchase agreements, contracts for difference, heat offtakes, price setting arrangements and Government subsidy regimes.

Kenneth works in all utility sectors both in and outside the UK and increasingly advises on “behind the meter” energy solutions, energy efficiency schemes and district/community heating projects.

CLIENT STORy

Kenneth advised Osprey Charging, one of the UK’s largest and fastest growing public EV charge-point networks, on the deployment of Transport for London’s (TfL) first EV rapid charging hub. BCLP’s solution helped Osprey navigate the complex regulatory, financial, planning and real estate landscape to launch within a very tight timeframe.

Structuring shell and core data centre developments: Legal strategies for scalability and flexibility

This is the second in a ten-part article series on the legal strategies shaping the future of data centre development in the UK. The UK data centre sector’s expansion is increasingly dominated by the shell and core development model. Hyperscale and major colocation tenants are seeking to deploy capital efficiently, accelerate their time-to-market, and retain maximum control over their proprietary technical environments. In response, developers are delivering powered shells – buildings with foundational power and cooling infrastructure but without tenant-specific fit-out – as the market standard. This approach provides tenants with the freedom to customise their IT architecture. But it also presents developers and investors with complex legal and commercial challenges. The core objective is to create a flexible, scalable asset while ensuring a secure, bankable investment that meets the stringent criteria of institutional finance. The success in shell and core projects depends on the seamless integration of planning, development, construction, leasing and regulatory strategies. A misstep in one area can cascade through the project, affecting finance, tenant relationships and operational performance. This second instalment of our Insight Series examines the legal frameworks underpinning these developments, from the structure of development management agreements and lease contracts to the regulatory considerations shaping the market.

Mastering powered land transactions for UK data centres

This is the first in a ten-part article series on the legal strategies shaping the future of data centre development in the UK. The UK’s data centre market is entering a period of rapid expansion, set to grow from $10.7 billion in 2024 to $22.7 billion by 2030. This is being driven by the computational demands of artificial intelligence, the widespread shift to cloud services and the relentless rise of enterprise-level computing. The result is a highly competitive market for powered land. For hyperscale operators, institutional investors and specialist developers, the acquisition of these sites is no longer confined to the parameters of conventional real estate. Instead, it’s now a complex, high-stakes convergence of energy regulation, planning law and strategic commercial negotiation. Successfully navigating this landscape to deliver projects on time and on budget requires commercially astute legal advice to mitigate risk, unlock value and achieve market-leading outcomes. In this article, we explore the legal, regulatory and commercial strategies that underpin successful data centre development, from planning consent and power supply agreements to ESG integration and emerging technological requirements.

Achieving Net Zero – Regulation of District and Communal Heating and Cooling and Impact on the Real Estate Sector

This is our first insight on new regulation that will affect the district/communal heating and cooling sector. It focuses on consumer protection and the impact on building owners/landlords and management companies. Our second insight to be released shortly will focus on the regulations that will affect new property developments and in particular those in “Heat Network Zones”. The district/communal heating/cooling sector is to be fully regulated in the UK as from late 2023/early 2024. Consumer protection is at the forefront of the changes. Heat/cooling suppliers (entities contractually obliged to provide heat/cooling) and heat/cooling network operators will need to be “authorised” to carry out those activities. Heat/cooling networks, for the purpose of regulation, will comprise direct heat/cooling networks and communal heat networks. From early/mid 2024 OFGEM will oversee and enforce requirements opposite heat/cooling suppliers and heat/cooling network operators in respect of: authorisations to carry out those activities; reliability of the supply of heating, hot water and cooling; the reasonableness of charges for those supplies; reduction of emissions of targeted greenhouse gases generated by heat/cooling networks; and plain communication to customers about services and charges. This will impose a significant regulatory burden on a sector that hitherto has been able to operate in a broadly unregulated environment. Many building owners, landlords and management companies will – perhaps unwittingly and unwillingly - fall into the category of a regulated heat/cooling supplier or heat/cooling network operator. If so they will need to keep abreast of the evolving regulatory landscape, review their current arrangements to check regulatory compliance and if required create an action plan to ensure compliance.
