Where are developers going wrong in their solar contracts?
In this episode of Solar&StorageXtra’s podcast, guest host Ken Davies speaks with Rhiannon Morgan-Williams, Partner at Ashfords LLP and a leading legal expert in renewable energy development.
With over a decade of experience advising developers and funders in solar and battery projects, Rhiannon shares her insider perspective on the evolving legal landscape around landowner agreements, option contracts, and the complexities developers face – from initial negotiation to grid connection.
Rhiannon and Ken also dive into emerging legal implications of agrivoltaics and the challenges of integrating agriculture and energy generation on shared land.
“There are a lot of things that could have been picked up by just future-proofing some of the documents at earlier stages. One thing that is always missed off is the consideration given to the ultimate needs of the parties who are likely going to own these projects in the future.”

From contract tips to agrivoltaics insights, this episode is essential listening for developers, landowners, and legal professionals in clean energy.
