CMS committed to sustainability – first law firm in Belgrade with solar power plant on its rooftop

CMS is the first law firm in Belgrade to install a solar power plant on the roof of its own building. The plant has been in operation for nine months now.

Two months ago, it also obtained official status as a prosumer (buyer-producer) of electricity. It is an important milestone in CMS Belgrade’s transition to more sustainable energy use, according to the announcement.

Since reaching full operating capacity, the solar plant has covered around 50% of its total electricity consumption.

The long-term goal is ambitious yet achievable, according to CMS Belgrade: 70% of electricity consumption from solar by the end of 2025, and 100% within the next three years.

“Sustainability is not just a goal — it’s a responsibility, and one we are committed to integrating into every part of our business,” the announcement reads.

Radivoje Petrikić, the Managing Partner at CMS Belgrade (Petrikić & Partneri AOD in cooperation with CMS Reich-Rohrwig Hainz), said: “We are committed to integrating eco-friendly practices into every aspect of our business. By embracing sustainability in our daily operations, we are not only shaping a brighter future for our firm but also contributing to a greener planet for generations to come.”

The office is part of international law firm CMS CEE, based in Vienna.
