Wolf Theiss publishes guide to generating electricity from renewable sources in Central, Eastern & Southeastern Europe

While there is intense interest in building renewable energy projects in Central, Eastern & Southeastern Europe, regulatory hurdles and uncertainties may prevent many projects from being realized in 2010, according to Wolf Theiss attorneys in the region. Major energy companies and other project developers continue to show interest in renewable energy in CEE-SEE, particularly in light of commitments by EU member states and non-EU countries to generate a greater percentage of energy from renewable sources (RES). But many investors continue to be concerned about the regulatory risks in pursuing projects in certain countries, according to Wolf Theiss.

To assist the renewable energy community in exploring untapped opportunities in CEE-SEE, Wolf Theiss released this month its Guide to Generating Electricity from Renewable Sources in Central, Eastern & Southeastern Europe. The guide provides a practical overview to the principal features of RES-Electricity projects in the 14 jurisdictions covered by Wolf Theiss: namely, Albania, Austria, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Kosovo, Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovak Republic, Slovenia and Ukraine.
