Underground natural gas storage at Epe

In the project planning and execution of an underground natural gas storage facility in Epe, we advised the energy supplier Essent in all civil law and public law matters since initiation of the project. We implemented the legal basis for the secured long term use of the site (by means of cavern usage agreements and lease contracts) and advised on plant management contracts.

We also advise Essent in mining law matters. This has included providing support in plant licensing and carrying out negotiations with public authorities and property owners.
