About

Described as a ‘group of diverse, innovative and solution-oriented lawyers’, the 23-person legal team (18 legal professionals and five non-legal staff) at Engie’s Asia Pacific Business Unit (BU) supports the activities of the company in Southeast Asia. Mostly comprised of senior legal advisors with over 10 years of individual legal experience, the team provides a comprehensive array of legal services (ranging from simple corporate services to complex M&A deals) and delivers timely, practical and value-oriented legal solutions to Engie’s commercial teams. Under the leadership of Bangkok-based Asia Pacific general counsel Julien Pochet, the team has developed a collaborative approach to work with the rest of the company thereby developing a business relationship based on trust, confidence and a highly personalised service. ‘Our team is known for being readily accessible, for playing an active and significant role in project teams and for providing legal answers and solutions that are sensible, pragmatic and commercially responsive’, Pochet shares. In addition in the last two years, the team has made a conscious decision to engage legal advisors who are proficient not only in handling large centralised projects, but also in addressing legal queries related to small decentralised solutions. ‘Engie BU Asia Pacific Legal is certainly well-equipped and fully aligned with the strategy and vision of the group to be a forerunner in the new energy world through co-innovation and partnerships, designing and developing new energy models which are decarbonised, digitalised and decentralised and to improve the lives of people and support growth opportunities for businesses and communities’. The team has demonstrated a firm commitment to conceive and implement renewable energy solutions throughout the region by supporting a number of ground-breaking projects. Notable examples, among others, include the team’s work on the financing of the Muara Laboh Geothermal Project in Indonesia and its legal support in Thailand to Glow Energy, the company’s first Waste-to-Energy project in Southeast Asia.
