McGinley is a leader in energy transition projects utilizing federal income tax credits, focusing on carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) projects. She represents some of the largest CCUS developers in the United States and has worked on innovative contracts and credit monetization transactions for CCUS developers. In one notable matter, McGinley – who also advises major conventional and renewable energy industry clients on acquisitions, dispositions, restructurings, joint ventures and debt and equity investments – represents Navigator CO2 Ventures LLC in its development of one of the first large-scale, commercially-viable carbon capture projects to be developed in the United States, the Heartland Greenway.
