GOLAW’s work in the energy and natural resources sector

“One of the main tasks of Ukraine after the war will be to develop energy infrastructure, modernise energy facilities, expand the potential of energy programmes and create special market-based economic incentives that will open Ukraine to Europe as a reliable distributor and business partner,” says GOLAW Managing Partner Valentyn Gvozdiy. 

GOLAW’s team has extensive experience in advising in the energy sector. Its comprehensive approach and a number of successful projects underline the team’s expertise. 

The firm’s lawyers:

• support businesses in the energy and natural resources sector,
• implement turnkey alternative energy projects,
• advise on legislative regulation of the natural resources and energy sector,
• advise on energy transactions focusing on renewable energy sources, attracting project finance from leading export credit agencies and international financial institutions.

The firm’s clients include Ukrainian and domestic companies and investors. Its main strength is its cross-border orientation and extensive experience working with domestic and international clients.

GOLAW maintains a dialogue with Ukrainian and European regulatory authorities and submits proposals to the government on how to solve problems in Ukraine’s energy sector.
