Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in the energy sector

In the energy sector, connection is everything – and we make it happen.

In energy transactions, every deal spans multiple dimensions: corporate, regulatory, investment, and often international. That’s why you need an experienced team that gets the full picture. And can translate it into sound decisions.

Let's talk

Why does #TheArtOfConnecting work for M&A in the energy sector?

We combine a transactional perspective with deep sector expertise. This allows us to guide your company through the entire process: from due diligence and negotiations to securing the necessary approvals and closing the deal.

 

You benefit from a faster, more confident decision-making process, with the assurance that the chosen structure will stand up to real-world scrutiny. With a single team that understands every detail, you execute your project seamlessly from start to finish.

COMPLETED PROJECTS

Our track record in the energy sector includes hundreds of projects—from assets in the development phase to transactions worth billions of zlotys. We don’t just theorize. We perform the largest transactions on the Polish RES market for industry leaders. 

Here’s how our approach works in practice:
Scale and security

Project: Acquisition by a Polish multi-energy conglomerate of solar and wind farms with a total capacity of over 300 MW. 

Our role: Our team joined forces to conduct detailed due diligence on the assets and to negotiate and finalize the share purchase agreements.

Result: The value of the transaction we legally secured exceeded PLN 1 billion. 

International precision

Project: Sale of companies owning six wind farms to a leading Polish energy company. The project required coordination with lawyers from Germany and Denmark. 

Our role: We acted as the seller’s advisor. The WKB Lawyers team prepared vendor due diligence reports, developed the transaction structure, and negotiated the transaction documents, including those related to the repayment of debt to lenders.

Result: successful coordination across three legal jurisdictions in a single transaction estimated at over PLN 900 million.

Investment in green energy

Project: Norwegian private equity fund HiTec Vision invested in Polska Grupa Biogazowa (PGB), a leading biogas producer in Poland. The transaction involved the acquisition of a 50% stake in the existing production assets and potential investments to expand PGB’s production capacity.

Our role: We provided legal support throughout the entire process—from due diligence and negotiations of the transaction documentation to filing a merger notification with the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK).

Result: successful closing of a EUR 190 million transaction, covering all aspects of the project—investment, regulatory, and antitrust.
