Tove Andersson
Delägare, AdvokatProfil
Jag arbetar sedan 2003 med miljö- och energirätt i alla dess former. Arbetet omfattar allt från storskaliga miljötillståndsprocesser inom olika branscher till transaktioner.
Mitt främsta expertisområde är miljötillståndsprocesser och jag anlitas ofta som huvudombud (lead counsel) för detta inom olika branscher. Energisektorn är en av mina främsta nischer och jag arbetar sedan många år bl.a. med flera av landets största aktörer inom vindkraft. Bergmaterialindustrin och avfallsbranschen är därtill mångåriga fokusområden. Jag bistår vidare regelbundet i allt från vattenprövningar till olika former av miljötillsyn, masshanteringsprojekt, elnät och artskyddsfrågor. Den snabba utvecklingen avseende större solkraftanläggningar samt energigaser, inte minst vätgas, ger upphov till regulatoriska frågor. Därtill har livsmedelssektorn med åren blivit ett växande segment.
Olika former av miljöansvar samt miljö- och energirätt i avtalsförhandlingar och transaktioner, ofta för internationella aktörer, är en central del av min rådgivning.
Jag har även särskild kunskap inom obeståndsrelaterad miljöjuridik i gruvbranschen såväl som i ansvarsfrågor gällande naturolyckor.
I maj 2023 tilldelades jag Svensk Vindkrafts Vindkraftpris för förtjänstfulla insatser inom vindkraftsbranschen.
