GA_P advises Águas da Figueira on the concession agreement with the municipality of Figueira da Foz

icon 29 of November, 2024

Gómez-Acebo & Pombo advised Águas da Figueira, the concessionaire of Figueira da Foz’s water and sanitation system.

This 4th amendment results in the concession agreement signed with the municipality of Figueira da Foz, investing 21 million euros over 12 years, extending the duration of the concession until 2042.

Also noteworthy in this operation is the position adopted by ERSAR, the sector’s regulator, which confirmed for the first time an innovative legal understanding regarding the way in which the law currently in force applies to previous water and waste service concessions.

The team was led by Ana Luísa Guimarães, partner in Lisbon’s Public and Regulated Sectors practice.

The Unified Patent Court takes jurisdiction to hear a claim concerning the infringement of the UK national part of a European patent, even when the validity of the patent is being disputed
In a decision dated 18 July 2025, the Mannheim Division of the Court of First Instance of the Unified Patent Court took jurisdiction to hear a claim filed against three companies domiciled in Germany for infringement of a classic European patent with effect in Germany and the United Kingdom. The court's jurisdiction to hear the infringement of the UK national part of European patents is not affected by the fact that the validity of the patent is disputed by the defendants. However, this conclusion does not apply to Spanish national parts of European patents.

Royal Decree 214/2025: obligation to calculate carbon footprints, draw up emission reduction plans and publicly disclose the same
Royal Decree 214/2025 does not create a new register, as its title suggests, but rather keeps and expands the one in place since 2014. What is truly new is the obligation imposed on specific companies and public bodies to calculate their carbon footprint and to draw up greenhouse gas emission reduction plans, as well as to publish the same.
