Welcome to the inaugural episode of Mind The [Energy] Gap with me, Sarah J. Beaumont, Esq., attorney in New York and London.  Each week I interview key stakeholders involved in the energy transition: this week's focus is on the environment. Live from Manhattan, New York City: I interviewed Jose Almanzar, senior counsel at Holland and Knight (Jose A. Almanzar | Professionals | Holland & Knight); we dive into environmental regulation, the risks that are consistently underestimated in the due diligence / negotiation stages of cleantech & infra deals, the ESG hype & the PFAS problem, how the role of attorneys will evolve with the energy transition, and Jose's predictions for the future of the clean energy transition.  Also stay tuned until the end to find out the inspirational volunteer work Jose undertakes outside of his busy BigLaw career!
