GSK Stockmann
GSK Stockmann is experienced in advising on grid and power line expansion and is regularly instructed by two out of the four German power transmission grid operators; here, co-practice head Stefan Geiger frequently takes the lead and advises on environmental and planning law issues pertaining to the approval, implementation and construction of power lines. Another focus is placed on decentralised power supply, above all photovoltaics, heat supply and charging infrastructure, as well as gas infrastructure matters, where the team advises on planning procedures, licensing issues and contract drafting. Co-practice head Sören Wolkenhauer (energy, public procurement and state aid law) regularly advises on the latter area.
