Due diligence of energy companies

Conducting business in the energy sector is subject to strict legal regulations. A due diligence audit entails an in-depth analysis of the company in terms of the compliance of its activities with legal provisions, regulatory requirements, and good market practices. We provide full support during the analysis of legal, tax, financial, and environmental risks, providing reliable information necessary for making business decisions.

  • Banks and financial institutions – verifying the creditworthiness of enterprises and analysing risks associated with the financing of energy projects, 
  • Energy companies – preparing for mergers, acquisitions, or restructuring, 
  • Energy cooperatives – assessing regulatory compliance, financial stability, and the technical condition of RES infrastructure, 
  • Local government units – planning cooperation with local energy producers and grid service providers. 

Due diligence in the energy sector

Our analyses cover all key aspects of energy companies’ operations. We develop a comprehensive risk profile, estimating potential financial consequences and the probability of their occurrence. Due diligence investigations allow for a thorough assessment of the company’s legal and financial standing, which is of key importance for making informed investment and operational decisions.

Due diligence – Legal analysis

As part of the legal analysis, we conduct a detailed verification of licenses, permits, and the compliance of the company’s operations with applicable regulations. We examine all key commercial, supply, and infrastructure agreements in terms of their regulatory compliance. We identify potential regulatory risks that may affect operational stability and verify whether the enterprise meets the requirements of the European Union’s climate policy and ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) standards. Consequently, our clients receive a comprehensive overview of the legal landscape surrounding the operations of the analysed company.
