MERCOSUR - Argentina • Energy and natural resources
Bomchil
Conventional, renewable, and thermoelectric power companies turn to Bomchil for assistance on regulatory and contractual matters. The team also has a strong major consumer-facing practice, advising corporates on power contract renegotiations and PPA deals. Energy-related disputes, including high-stakes international arbitrations, are also handled, as are financings for renewable energy projects sponsored by overseas investors and credit agencies. Due diligence and regulatory work on nuclear energy plan installation is another key source of work. Dispute resolution expert María Inés Corrá has a long history in the sector (especially regarding regulatory and contentious matters), and co-leads the team alongside experienced energy and natural resources all-rounder Pablo Alliani.
