Lincoln’s Inn Barrister 18+ Years Experience 8 Offices Nationwide Overseas Clients Welcome
In short

Pakistan’s Energy Sector Is Growing Fast. The Legal Complexity Is Growing With It.

Pakistan’s energy sector, oil and gas, thermal power, renewables, and the transmission and distribution network, operates under one of the most heavily regulated legal frameworks in the country. NEPRA, OGRA, and the federal and provincial authorities together govern licensing, tariffs, grid connection, environmental compliance, and commercial agreements across the entire value chain. A misstep in any of these areas can delay a project by years or expose an operator to regulatory sanction.

LawBridge LLP advises energy companies, project developers, investors, and lenders on regulatory compliance, licensing, power purchase agreements, concession contracts, joint venture structuring, and commercial disputes in the energy sector. We act in both conventional and renewable energy projects, including solar, wind, and hydropower.

Led by Barrister Bilal Ashraf, Barrister-at-Law (Lincoln’s Inn) and Advocate of the High Court, we give commercial, practical legal support to clients operating in one of Pakistan’s most important and fastest-moving sectors. Foreign investors and overseas Pakistani developers can work with us entirely remotely. Tell us your project or your problem on WhatsApp and we will set out your position clearly.

Energy Law Questions We Hear Most

What licences does my power project need from NEPRA?
It depends on the type of generation, the capacity, and whether you are connecting to the national grid. We advise on the correct licences, prepare the applications, and manage the process with NEPRA.
Can a foreign company invest in a Pakistani power project?
Yes. Pakistan actively encourages foreign investment in the energy sector, particularly renewables. We structure the investment correctly, handle the regulatory approvals, and protect your interest in the project documents.
My PPA or energy supply agreement is in dispute. What can I do?
We review the agreement, identify the breach or the point of dispute, and pursue resolution through negotiation, arbitration, or the courts, depending on what the agreement and the facts require.
How do I get a NEPRA or OGRA tariff determination reviewed?
Tariff determinations can be challenged through the regulatory process and, where appropriate, before the courts. We advise on the grounds and manage the challenge.
Do you advise on renewable energy projects such as solar and wind?
Yes. We advise on the full range of regulatory, contractual and investment matters for solar, wind, and hydropower projects in Pakistan.
