Daniel Varga Becomes New MET Group Green Assets Division Legal Director

Former MET Group Senior Legal Counsel Daniel Varga was appointed as the company’s new Green Assets Division Legal Director.

The MET Group is a Swiss-based European energy company with activities in the natural gas and power markets, focused on multi-commodity wholesale, trading and sales, renewable energy, and industrial assets. 

In his new position, Varga will be in charge of managing the full scope of legal matters related to the renewable portfolio of the MET Group. Before joining the MET Group in 2022, he spent three and a half years with Schoenherr as an Attorney at Law, re-joining the firm’s Budapest office in 2018 (as reported by CEE Legal Matters on August 10, 2018). Earlier, he had spent over three years with DLA Piper. He began his career with Schoenherr in 2012, where he initially spent over three years.

“I am excited to lead the legal team of MET’s Green Assets Division,” commented Varga. “The company has an ambitious goal to further expand its renewable portfolio across Europe, and I am convinced the professional and hands-on approach of MET towards green projects gives a competitive advantage for us to reach our goals together.”
