Cillóniz & Valencia Abogados’ power law department is regularly entrusted by an array of power consumers and electricity generation and transmission companies due to the team’s deep understanding of the electricity regulation landscape. Under the leadership of 'outstanding' Fernando Valencia Dibós, the department is noted for its expertise in project development and regulatory compliance matters. Valencia is particularly recognised for overseeing the design and implementation of environmental permitting strategies for the development of several significant power generation projects over the last 15 years. Primary associate support is provided by senior Carmen Rubiños who works across the energy and extractive sectors and also handles environmental matters. Former senior Thalia Simich left the firm in August 2023, with the firm hiring junior Aritha Neyra (from Rebaza, Alcázar & De Las Casas) the following month.
