The ongoing drive to combat climate change is not only encouraging growth in existing green sectors but is also leading to the development of entirely new fields. J A Kemp attorneys are working with clients to secure protection of their innovative intellectual property across the sector.
Our clients in this field include start-ups, universities, research institutions and multi-national companies. We have experience working with clients in a wide range of cleantech-related technologies. As just a few highlights, we lead work on carbon capture utilisation and storage, hydrogen production, methane reforming, battery technologies, fuel cells, bioreactors, biofuels, plastics recycling, combined heat and power systems, air purification technologies, water treatment and gene editing technologies to improve food security.
Many of our attorneys are passionate about the drive to zero carbon and we publish a range of informative IP-related material, such as our COP28 Insights Series, which you can read below.
Ahead of COP29, we have published a white paper on the Top Climate Tech Growth Areas. You can view or download a copy by clicking on the image below.
We are also committed to improving our own sustainability.
