From grid connection to green transition — full energy legal counsel.
Romania's energy sector is undergoing its fastest transformation in decades. The push to renewables — solar, wind, and green hydrogen — is attracting significant foreign capital, while regulatory frameworks are being rewritten to keep pace. We advise developers, investors, operators, and lenders across the energy value chain: project origination and permitting, grid connection agreements, power purchase agreements, M&A and project finance, and regulatory disputes before ANRE and the courts. Our experience spans both conventional energy and the renewables market, where regulatory knowledge and transactional speed matter most.
Energy projects succeed or fail on regulatory detail, permitting timing, and contract structure. We combine sector knowledge with transactional experience to give clients advice that is commercially grounded and technically precise — whether we are advising on a first solar project or a complex cross-border energy transaction.
