Pillsbury served as counsel to Chevron Corporation, through its Chevron New Energies business, in its recent collaboration with Baseload Capital to develop geothermal projects in the U.S.
In a combined effort to reach a lower carbon future, the agreement will allow the two organizations to collaborate on driving geothermal opportunities, create awareness and advance scalable novel geothermal technologies by leveraging geothermal operational experience along with core competencies from the traditional oil and gas sector.
