Energy & environment
The energy and environmental sectors sit at the heart of the ecological transition: renewable energy, energy efficiency, green infrastructure projects, ESG obligations. These projects require solid legal and tax structuring, as they combine heavy investments, constantly evolving regulations and public/private financing.
Without upstream legal safeguards, companies face regulatory blockages, loss of investors or significant financial penalties.
Legal Growth supports your energy and environmental projects internationally by securing your contracts, your financing and your regulatory compliance.

is what a well-structured Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) can guarantee
70%
of institutional investors require documented ESG/CSRD compliance before financing a project
1. Structuring projects and partnerships
Energy projects rely on complex partnerships (EPC, PPP, joint ventures).
A poorly drafted contract leads to delays, disputes and cost overruns.
Legal Growth secures construction, supply and strategic partnership contracts, ensuring smooth project delivery within a controlled legal framework.
2. ESG and regulatory compliance
CSRD reporting, carbon standards, CBAM regulation, REACH obligations: regulatory requirements are multiplying for energy and environmental actors.
Any gap can block access to financing or lead to sanctions.
Legal Growth integrates ESG and environmental compliance into your contracts and documentation, strengthening your credibility with investors and partners.
3. Tax optimisation for energy investments
Energy projects frequently rely on cross-border tax structures (blended finance, subsidies, local exemptions).
Without proper structuring, you lose competitiveness and profitability.
Legal Growth optimises your tax flows (dividends, management fees, royalties), secures the application of tax treaties and anticipates audits to maximise results.
