“The best in the Netherlands; fantastic reputation”
The Regulatory team advises and litigates on sector-specific issues and represents clients before European and national regulators and policymakers on sector-specific legislation and litigation issues.
We help clients in the complex world of changing laws and regulations, as well as regulation and enforcement of sector-specific laws and regulations by regulators like the ACM. We can provide assistance and advice across every sector of the economy.
We have unique expertise and an outstanding track record in the Energy and Utilities sector. We represent our clients (including major industrialists, grid managers, energy producers, energy suppliers and industry associations) in oil and gas, electricity and heat, and in the development of relatively new activities around CCS(U) (carbon capture and storage (and usage)), geothermal energy, sustainable heat, green hydrogen and sustainable and circular energy projects. We are involved in key themes like energy transition and energy law in the broadest sense and help our clients resolve or prevent disputes or issues in areas including tariff regulation, state aid, market and government, subsidies (such as the SDE(++)), electricity grid congestion, market abuse (REMIT), handling complex connection situations, major accidents and grid failures, and ambiguities in European and Dutch legislation and regulations. We also assist clients in designing (energy) projects and transactions in regulated markets and help mitigate the risks in these projects around planning law, including environmental law and spatial administrative law.
