Buju Stanciu & Associates Wins Appeal in Large Solar Energy Commercial Dispute
Buju Stanciu & Associates successfully assisted a major international player in the solar energy sector, headquartered in China and with its European headquarters in Germany, in a commercial dispute related to the execution of commercial reports regarding the delivery of photovoltaic equipment.
By the decision issued on May 5, 2026, the Ploiești Court of Appeal admitted the appeal filed by the client assisted by Buju Stanciu & Associates, annulled the first instance sentence and, re-examining the case, dismissed as unfounded the claim filed against the client after, in the first instance, he had been ordered to pay a considerable amount, representing the equivalent value of deliveries allegedly not made.
The solution is relevant due to the commercial value of the dispute, the international nature of the relations between the parties and the market context in which it arose: a cross-border transaction regarding photovoltaic products, affected by the heightened volatility of prices in the solar panel industry and by difficulties arising in the phased execution of orders, deliveries and payment obligations.
The Buju Stanciu & Asociații team built the defense on appeal on an integrated analysis of the commercial relationship between the parties, the contractual correspondence, the order and delivery mechanism specific to the industry, as well as the economic effects generated by the refusal to continue the execution of the commercial relationship.
“This solution confirms the importance of a defense that is not limited to the formal reading of the documents, but reconstructs the entire commercial mechanism of the transaction. In international disputes of this type, especially in volatile sectors such as renewable energy, it is essential for the court to understand the economic reality behind orders, purchases, storage, deliveries and payments. For our client, the decision eliminates a substantial financial exposure and correctly re-establishes the factual framework of the dispute,” said lawyer Vlad Mureșan, from Buju Stanciu & Asociații, who coordinated the litigation strategy.
