Energy Law

The ever-changing landscape of EU and Greek Energy Law is one of the biggest hurdles investors and energy companies involved in the Greek energy market have to face on a constant basis. With a solid grasp of the regulatory and legal complexities involved in developing or acquiring energy projects, we provide full scale advice to clients from the start-up investment phase all the way up to the mature stages of a project’s construction and operation, as well as day to day advice thereafter.

Our Energy Law team consists of both specialized lawyers, as well as of lawyers with strong multidisciplinary backgrounds – ranging from Greek Civil, Corporate and Administrative Law to International Law and sector-focused international arbitration. As such, we regularly advise developers, contractors, investors, consultants and lenders on a wide range of energy projects, such as large-scale PV, Wind and Waste Management projects, while having been involved in most of the major privatization transactions in the Greek energy markets including, but not limited to, DEPA S.A and DESFA S.A.

Services

We bring together our diverse background, unparalleled dedication and results-driven mentality to provide our clients with services that effectively address their Energy Law matters. These include:

  • project structuring and implementation,
  • negotiating acquisition and land lease agreements and preliminary agreements with private land owners,
  • privatization of state controlled energy entities,
  • participating in public tenders for securing land acquisition or lease agreements with municipalities and other public bodies,
  • carrying out regulatory licensing works and liaising with the competent authorities,
  • negotiating project agreements and sub-contracts including, but not limited to, energy supply contracts, grid connection arrangements, EPC contracts etc,
  • development of effective financing and security packages,
  • setting up of special purpose vehicles and joint ventures to accommodate new projects,
  • setting up and advising on issues related to Energy Communities,
  • advising on the implications and effect of national and EU legislation and proactively updating clients on any new developments,
  • full-scale dispute prevention / avoidance and dispute resolution before the competent administrative authorities, the civil and administrative courts or international arbitration.
