The KRB energy and infrastructure team is widely considered as one of Israel’s best.

KRB counsels most of the leading entities and flagship projects in the energy field, including power plants (conventional and renewable energy), construction and operation of natural gas distribution infrastructures, transactions for the acquisition of natural gas. In the infrastructure sector, we accompany many and varied projects, among the largest executed in Israel. Among them are international projects carried out locally by foreign contractors, such as representing the state in the procurement and execution of the Red Line in the Gush Dan metropolitan area. This is the first transportation project in Israel of its size and complexity, with many legal challenges and interfaces; engineering, financial, administrative, and commercial and operational. Also, in the field of infrastructure, we accompany design and construction projects, operation and concessions in various other fields such as energy, water, waste, and more. Another unique specialization of our firm is in infrastructure projects abroad, particularly in developing countries, mainly in Africa and Asia. The knowledge and experience gained by the firm over the years enables us to provide in-depth consultation at all stages of any project, in both the legal and business aspects. The firm provides a complete array of services, from representation before regulatory bodies, through involvement in energy and infrastructure tenders, statutory procedures, and drafting of all project-related agreements such as EPC, O&M, natural gas procurement, PPA and financing.
