Full-service law firm Barros & Errázuriz has significant experience in energy-related matters, including electricity sector issues. The 13-strong team covers the negotiation of power purchase agreements (PPAs), regulatory issues, energy M&A, joint ventures, and acquisition processes. The firm is also home to specialists in project financing and energy-related disputes. On the renewable energy side, the team advises domestic, regional and international market players, developers and financiers on hydroelectric, wind and solar energy projects, as well as transmission lines. In energy litigation, the group’s track record includes successful lawsuits over the interpretation and application of large PPAs. The department is led by José Tomás Errázuriz, who advises on major energy projects, as well as energy litigation (in addition to leading the firm’s dispute resolution offering). The team further showcases Fernando Garrido, who has extensive experience in natural resources and energy project development, energy M&A, project finance, litigation, and energy companies’ general corporate matters; and Cristóbal Pellegrini, who is ‘a practical lawyer who knows the electricity market in Chile in depth’. Pellegrini focuses predominantly on energy project developments, PPAs, project finance, M&A transactions (including due diligence), corporate law, and litigation. Associates Catalina Vergara and Raimundo Ruiz are also experienced in energy projects.
