- Greenfield and brownfield projects, including hydroelectric, wind, solar, nuclear and thermal power

The team combines highly specialized legal knowledge and business acumen to provide a wide array of services related to the power industry:
- Guiding companies through mergers and acquisitions
- Drafting and negotiating construction contracts, equipment and fuel supply agreements, and power purchase agreements (PPAs)
- Assisting in power commercialization through long-term PPAs, self-consumption arrangements, consortium agreements and joint ventures
- Designing the corporate and contractual framework for renewable energy platforms in Brazil, including operations and maintenance (O&M) and asset management arrangements
