Nothing runs without energy. This applies to commerce and the provision of services as well as to industry and administration. Reason enough for legislators to comprehensively regulate the energy sector. And reason enough for us to offer you our expertise in energy related commercial law. Our energy practice group will cater to your needs no matter where you are.

We provide advice on each value-added step along the way.

Energy law cannot be confined to the classic topics such as energy supply agreements, network access or price formation. The business of energy in fact begins with the extraction of energy sources and includes issues ranging from the construction and operation of power plants and the use of related infrastructure to the supply of consumers. We advise and represent our clients across this broad spectrum of topics, which also includes complex permit procedures regarding the extraction of raw materials and power plants, questions about emissions trading, network access and network use, government procurement of construction contracts, the drafting and execution of construction contracts, the arrangement of energy delivery and supply contracts, etc., etc., etc. There is no need to say that we consistently take all current political developments into consideration.
