Multi-service CEE-wide firm Schoenherr supports clients with their ESG strategies across the region and has been historically engaged with energy and climate protection legislation.

The firm’s longstanding engagement with Bulgaria’s energy market positions it well to address complex matters pertaining to the energy transition. It draws from an interdisciplinary group of experts to advise clients at all stages, from acquisition to implementation of green energy projects.

In a recent highlight, managing partner of the firm’s Sofia office, Alexandra Doytchinova, and head of regulatory and energy, Stefana Tsekova, advised MET Group on its acquisition of a 60 MW wind park in Suvorovo from Grupo Enhol. In the past, Doytchinova assisted renewable energy producer Enery on its acquisition of the largest PV park in Bulgaria. Tsvetan Krumov, who leads the banking and finance group in Sofia, has strong expertise in sustainable finance and is leading the advice to RGREEN Invest on its €15m green bond for the construction of a PV plant in southwestern Bulgaria.

Other key clients seeking the firm’s avice on sustainability-related matters have included the European Commission, Liechtenstein Group, and UniCredit Bulbank.
