More about the practice
We support energy projects at every stage — from development and financing to construction, operation, transactions and disputes. In a sector where tariffs, grid connection terms and regulatory rules change faster than a project takes to complete, we make sure the legal side works towards the result rather than holding the business back.
At GOLAW, the energy sector is handled by a multidisciplinary team: development and structuring of projects, financing, interaction with regulators (the NEURC, system operators), taxation and court protection — all within one team. We handle projects in renewable and conventional energy, oil and gas, and the extraction of natural resources: from the land base, permits and EPC/PPA contracts to green auctions, M&A deals and international arbitration.
We work with developers, investors, banks and international financial institutions, EPC contractors, electricity producers (renewables, thermal and nuclear power plants), traders, transmission and distribution system operators, consumers and state-owned companies. We also advise state authorities on energy policy.
GOLAW is among those shaping Ukraine’s new energy sector: we are a co-founder of the European-Ukrainian Energy Transition Hub, presented at the European Commission.
Renewables — renewable sources: solar and wind generation, energy storage systems, turnkey projects.
Oil and Gas — exploration, extraction, transportation, trading, regulatory and contractual matters.
Conventional Energy — generation, transmission and distribution of electricity, interaction with system operators and regulators.
Natural Resources — extraction and use of natural resources, support of the relevant projects and permit procedures.
