Understanding the energy & utilities operating environment.
PPAs, EPRA approvals and community-engagement frameworks define Kenya's energy sector. Project-finance discipline and Alternative Justice Systems literacy are increasingly required in the same mandate, often within the same week of a closing timetable.
The transition to renewables, the build-out of transmission and distribution, and the slow normalisation of corporate PPAs are creating a generation of mid-market deals that need full project-finance rigour without big-firm overhead. Community land, biodiversity and ESG expectations sit alongside every one of them.
We bring sponsors and lenders a combined project, regulatory and community-engagement bench. EPRA and ERC engagement, lender-side documentation, and Article 159-aligned community processes are run inside one matter, which keeps the timetable honest and the social licence intact.
