Frequently asked questions about energy law in Cyprus

What permits are needed to develop a renewable energy project in Cyprus?

Renewable projects such as solar and wind typically require a combination of licences, planning and environmental approvals, and grid connection agreements. The exact requirements depend on the technology, size, and location. We map out the permitting path and manage the approvals your project needs.

What is a power purchase agreement?

A power purchase agreement, or PPA, is a long-term contract for the sale and purchase of electricity between a generator and a buyer. Its terms drive the bankability and risk profile of an energy project. We draft and negotiate PPAs to give you certainty and protect your position.

How is the energy sector regulated in Cyprus?

Energy activities in Cyprus operate within a national and EU framework covering licensing, market rules, competition, and environmental protection. The rules continue to evolve as the sector opens up and decarbonises. We keep you compliant and help you respond to regulatory change.

Do you advise on oil, gas, and offshore energy matters?

Yes. We advise on conventional and offshore energy projects, including contracts, licensing, joint ventures, and regulatory compliance. These projects are complex and high value, so careful legal structuring matters. We help you manage risk at every stage.
