Shibolet & Co.’s increasingly prominent energy practice added a string of new clients over the past year, including major multinational and domestic renewable energy players such as China United Corporation, RCS Solar and Meshek Energy. The group works in tandem with the infrastructure practice to specialise in energy projects, with strong recent showings in the power (both conventional and renewables), energy storage and waste-to-energy spheres. Project finance specialist Alon Ziv co-heads the group together with construction chair Sharon Adler and David Magriso, who focuses on construction and development projects. Adiel Shulhani is also noted. Shlomit Hess recently left the firm.
