Energy and Infrastructure

The design, development, management, subsidising and, more in general, exploitation of energy resources, as well as the development of infrastructures, are activities of paramount strategical importance within the scope of the Italian and European Recovery and Resilience Plan.

Our professionals have a consolidated experience in all contractual, legal, regulatory and litigation aspects associated with:

• construction, authorisation, operation, financing, lease, sale and maintenance of plants fed by traditional sources (oil, coal and natural gas), as well as renewable energy sources (photovoltaic, wind, geothermal, hydroelectric and biomass)
• exploration, mining, sale, distribution and transportation of gas and hydrocarbons
• production, transmission, distribution and sale of electricity
• tender procedures and public contract for works and supply of services for energy infrastructures, highways and ports
• liaison with competent public authorities (Ministry for Economic Development, Regulatory Authority for Energy, Transmission Networks and Environment, Manager of Energy Services);
• pre-litigation and litigation before administrative courts
• domestic and international arbitrations.

In all these areas, we have also assisted national and foreign clients in M&A and Private Equity transactions, leveraging on our deep knowledge of the industries, sector-specific regulations and contractual best practice.
