On Wednesday 18 October 2017, the President of Beirut Bar Association (BBA) Mr. Antonio Hachem, the President and CEO of Indevco Group Mr. Neemat Frem, and the President of the Committee of Energy and Water at the BBA (also President of IPT Energy Center (IPTEC)) Dr. Toni Issa, announced the completion of the first phase of the Solar Energy Project at the House of the Lawyer in Beirut, in the presence of the General Manager of Phoenix Energy Mr. Rabih Osta, the board members of the Committee of Energy and Water, and specialists in the field. 

The project is based on a study prepared in collaboration with the Lebanese Center of Energy Conservation (LCEC) and was executed by Phoenix Energy in the form of a grant. It is part of a plan to convert the House of the Lawyer in Beirut into a green and sustainable building with the objective to minimize the building's carbon footprint and to conserve energy. 

In his speech, Dr. Issa confirmed that the BBA is committed to promoting energy sustainability and Eco-friendly practices among its members, given the rapid developments witnessed in the field of oil & gas exploration in Lebanon. He also highlighted that the BBA is in process of preparing several workshops in this regard in collaboration with Phoenix Energy, LCEC, and BDL, and highlighted the great incentives offered by the latter to fulfill this mission.
