Sustainable Energy: Still United in Diversity?

Overview & Synopsis

This book is the 11th volume published by the European Environmental Law Forum (EELF). The EELF is open to scholars and practitioners that study the environmental law in the European Union and its Member States and allows for discussion, cooperation and dissemination of ideas on a regular basis. This book, which is an open source peer reviewed publication, aims at achieving these goals. It bundles twelve contributions from those presented during the 11th EELF Conference held in Groningen, on 28-30 August 2024. It focuses on the relationship between environmental protection and the production, distribution and consumption of energy and the regulatory and policy challenges that are felt in the transition to a sustainable energy system and more generally a low carbon economy. Today, an increasingly important part of EU environmental law concerns this energy transition, triggering regulatory experimentation and judicial activity at myriad levels.
