Energy
Structuring tomorrow’s energy landscape
The energy sector is undergoing an unprecedented transformation, driven by the acceleration of the energy transition, the rapid expansion of renewable projects, the tightening of regulations, and the reshaping of value chains. Each project involves numerous stakeholders, complex authorizations, and sophisticated financial structures.
We advise industrial operators, producers, investors, developers, and public institutions on a wide range of matters, including infrastructure acquisitions, project development, public-private partnerships (PPPs), financing, and litigation. Our expertise covers the entire energy value chain, from fossil resources to renewables, while integrating regulatory, environmental, and tax considerations.
Our approach relies on multidisciplinary teams and an in-depth understanding of institutional mechanisms. We operate in France, Europe, and Africa to secure projects and turn regulatory constraints into drivers of competitiveness.
our Interventions
Transactions
We structure acquisitions and divestitures of operating companies, projects, and energy assets. Our work includes due diligence, warranty negotiations, the creation of joint ventures, and investments in offshore wind, solar, and infrastructure projects.
Project Development
We support the development of energy and mining projects from design to operation. Each engagement includes legal structuring, negotiation of power purchase agreements, land security, and coordination with stakeholders.
Public-Private Partnerships
We advise on the structuring and negotiation of PPPs in the energy sector. Our work covers contractual arrangements, risk allocation, financing, and relationships with granting authorities to ensure economic balance and operational viability.
Administrative and Regulatory Authorizations
We manage the process for obtaining environmental, energy, and administrative authorizations. Our role includes identifying regulatory pathways, preparing applications, negotiating with authorities, and anticipating challenges to secure critical approvals.
Energy Project Financing
We structure project financing from initial setup through refinancing. Our work includes negotiations with lenders, structuring of securities, tax optimization, and coordination with advisors to accelerate closing and mitigate execution risks.
Litigation and Arbitration
We defend clients’ interests in disputes and arbitration related to energy projects. Our expertise covers contractual litigation, administrative appeals, environmental disputes, and international arbitration. Each strategy aims to protect assets and preserve business relationships.
Regulatory and Public Affairs Advisory
We provide strategic advice on regulatory developments and assist clients in their relations with public institutions and regulatory bodies. Our team monitors and interprets trends across the renewable, fossil, and electricity sectors to help anticipate and adapt to changes in the regulatory environment.
