Green energy (renewable energy, energy law)

KWKR offers comprehensive legal advice on renewable energy sources, covering all stages of energy project implementation — from planning and design to implementation and operation. We provide advisory services to companies involved in the construction and development of wind farms, photovoltaic power plants, biogas installations, and hybrid projects.

We support our clients in administrative procedures such as obtaining environmental decisions, decisions on building conditions, building permits, grid connection conditions, and electricity generation licenses. We also advise on the negotiation of contracts, including EPC, O&M, PPA, and contracts for the acquisition of real estate rights and land leases for renewable energy investments.

We provide comprehensive regulatory advice on compliance with national and EU regulations concerning the energy sector, environmental protection, and transmission infrastructure. We also offer legal advice on the modernization of existing installations and the transformation of power supply systems towards low-carbon solutions.

The KWKR team has experience in handling infrastructure projects in the green energy sector. We have represented entrepreneurs in proceedings before administrative authorities and administrative courts, including in cases concerning environmental regulations, building permits, and location decisions. We have successfully supported the negotiation of land lease agreements and the conclusion of long-term energy supply contracts. We also assist in transactions on the OZW project market, advising on the purchase and sale of projects ready for implementation and those already in operation.

We cooperate with technical advisors and engineers, which allows us to take infrastructure and operational aspects into account in our legal activities. We also advise international entities investing in Poland, providing services in accordance with cross-border requirements and local regulations in the energy sector.

We ensure that our clients can effectively negotiate contracts, secure their interests in relations with suppliers, contractors, and network operators, and navigate the changing regulatory environment with ease. Our goal is to provide real support for the continued operation of businesses in the spirit of sustainable development.

The transformation of the energy sector is a dynamic process, closely linked to national and EU regulations. In recent years, legislators have introduced increasingly complex requirements for infrastructure projects in the field of renewable energy, particularly in terms of environmental protection, investment location, and support systems for renewable energy producers.

In practice, the biggest challenge is ensuring that investments comply with environmental and spatial planning regulations, which often requires in-depth advice at the preliminary design stage. Equally important is knowledge of auction mechanisms, guaranteed tariffs and rules for connection to the power grid.

It is worth remembering that a properly prepared project, both in legal and environmental terms, not only has a better chance of being implemented but also of long-term operation without the risk of administrative decisions being suspended or revoked. Today, legal advice on renewable energy is not only formal support, but a key factor in the success of an investment.
