Australia: Construction force majeure and alternative relief
Force majeure and alternative relief under standard form construction contracts and local law.
Global | Publication | May 2020
In these extraordinary times, our market-leading, global construction team is increasingly advising on force majeure and related relief claims arising under the various different standard forms of construction contract, which are themselves subject to a variety of different governing laws.
To assist navigating such claims, in particular for international organisations with construction projects in multiple jurisdictions, we have prepared this concise reference guide, which sets out the relevant provisions of the standard form construction contracts used in - and the local laws of - the countries listed below.
We shall be updating this guide periodically, so do let us know if there are countries and/or standard form contracts that you would like to see included.
Our global construction team advises throughout the lifecycle of a construction project, from procurement structuring, tendering, contract drafting and negotiation, through to strategic advice during construction, operation and maintenance and on resolving construction related disputes. Our clients include governments, lenders, project companies/sponsors, developers, contractors, consultants and institutional investors. We combine sector knowledge with commercial focus to deliver timely and reasoned construction law advice.

The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (the Recast EPBD) entered into force on 28 May 2024. The Recast EPBD repeals the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive 2010 (the Repealed EPBD). The Repealed EPBD will remain as transposed in the laws of England and Wales, and the Recast EPDB will only be transposed into the national legislation of EU Member States. The overarching aims of the revisions set out in the Recast EPBD reflect the common themes of European climate legislation to speed up the transition to renewables and rapidly reduce energy consumption. We set out below a summary of the key provisions under the Recast EPBD, when the provisions take effect and a comparison with the Repealed EPBD.

On 21 May 2024, the European Council (or Council) adopted the so-called ‘Hydrogen and decarbonised gas market package’ (the Gas Package). The package contains a recast of the 715/2009 gas regulation (Gas Regulation) and a recast of the 2009/73 gas directive (Gas Directive) aimed at reforming the existing EU regulatory framework to support the deployment of renewable and low-carbon gases, in particular hydrogen. As such, it represents a major development in the EU gas market.
