A host of firms are poised to be appointed to EDF Energy’s new UK legal panel as the energy giant finalises a review of its roster of external advisers. 

Herbert Smith Freehills, Eversheds, Morgan Lewis, Squire Sanders and TLT are among those expected to be reappointed to the line-up, with Baker & McKenzie winning a first-time appointment to the roster. Final terms and panel structure will be agreed in the coming weeks.
