Becoming Clean #6: W. Andrew Jack

Andrew Jack was interviewed by Monaco Life for its “Becoming Clean” feature ahead of the 2017 CleanEquity Monaco conference. Commenting on the evolution of Covington’s Clean Energy and Climate Industry Group, Jack says, “We started up in late 2008 and we now have about 85 of the approximately 1,000 lawyers in the firm who are devoting a fair amount of their time to working with clean energy clients within several verticals: solar, wind, biofuels, energy efficiency, energy storage and advanced vehicles.” After realizing that the industry is “capital intensive, regulatory policy intensive, intellectual property intensive, international in scope and impactful on the world,” Jack adds that it was “a perfect storm that lawyers and firms, like Covington, are effective at knitting together.”
