Our energy and natural resources lawyers deliver to our clients the focused, innovative sector advice they need, in Burundi and beyond.

We are entering an era of unprecedented demand for power generation and transmission, especially in Burundi. This dynamic, together with the challenges we all face from climate change, is creating new opportunities for alternative energies and new technologies.

Our energy clients received innovative advice on the entire lifecycle of a project, from the consenting and planning process, through to the construction, financing, operation, maintenance and ultimately their refinancing or sale. The services offered also include interpretation and enforcement of energy statutes, licenses and industry codes.

Experience has included advising:

  • A national provider of electricity in drafting and negotiation of a concession agreement and power purchase agreement for the Jiji 003 hydroelectric power plant and Mulembwe 034 plant.
  • A regional energy organization in the development of the Ruzizi III Regional Hydro Project          covering three countries including Burundi, Rwanda and the DRC.
