Tavarone, Rovelli, Salim & Miani has carved out a strong reputation in the burgeoning renewable energy sector where it works with a cohort of innovative clients involved in wind and solar power projects, off-grid power generation and mining-related electricity projects. The team handles regulatory and transactional matters, including large project financings, and has also been an influential player in the evolution of power purchase agreements (PPAs) and related contractual matters. The team is particularly noted for its work in lithium-related energy projects and setting up renewable energy infrastructure to power mining operations. Energy-related disputes and arbitrations are also familiar and active areas. The dynamic and experienced electricity and natural resources expert Nicolás Eliaschev co-leads the practice with Javier Constanzó, who was raised to the partnership in 2023 and handles public law, energy and infrastructure work. At associate level senior Daiana Perrone, who focuses on public law and renewable energy, is the main contact.
