About

The corporate and legal affairs (CLA) department of ERG is composed of 20 members under the responsibility of general counsel Andrea Navarra. The team is divided into three sections: legal affairs – thermos, hydro, sun and energy management led by head of legal Raffaella Romei; legal affairs – wind and business development headed by head of legal Moreno Bisio; and corporate affairs and compliance headed by head of corporate affairs Marco Scollo. Most recently the legal team has increased the number of lawyers and opened internal legal offices in other European countries, as opposed to having the CLA department support the entire European business from Italy only. ‘This was due to the significant growth – essentially abroad – of our Group activities. As a consequence, new colleagues – qualified in France, Scotland, England and Wales – were recruited to work in our French and UK offices’, explains Navarra. The CLA department has played a substantial role in all extraordinary transactions carried out by ERG Group over the last 18 months. Amongst these projects, the sale of oil downstream and refinery assets in Italy belonging to Total ERG joint venture stands out as a noteworthy project, as well as the project of photovoltaic plaints in Italy and purchase of wind plants and projects in France, Germany, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Poland which has an overall value well above €1.5bn. In addition, the CLA department has been involved in the repowering and re-blading of ERG Italian wind assets, which is an essential part of ERG industrial plan 2018-2022.
