The Law for Energy Prosumers
This book argues that law has a vital role in shaping the electricity system to enable a more active role for consumers in liberalizsed electricity industries. To do that, this book offers a unique legal perspective of the Netherlands, New Zealand and Colombia to help understand some of the current legal approaches to prosumers and therefore the legal challenges and opportunities facing. Law and regulation have the role of creating a level playing field for emerging participants, such as prosumers, to participate and compete in the market together with traditional actors, bringing not only more competition but also representing a more sustainable, environmental and democratic way to supply e...
From Fossil Fuels to Low Carbon Energy Transition
Focusing on five key themes - hydrocarbons, electricity, mining, social license to operate, and arbitration/dispute resolution- via in-depth country and regional case studies, this book seeks to capture the contrasting and sometimes conflicting trends in energy governance in Latin America as it wrestles with a dependence on fossil fuels whilst shifting toward a low carbon future. Energy transition continues to sit at the centre of the Latin American policy debate as the world continues to push for carbon neutrality by 2050. Latin America is undergoing a renewable energy transition, with substantial reserves (solar, wind, hydro, geothermal) and many countries in the region setting ambitious renewable energy policies, laws, and regulations to address climate change. However, recent initiatives to promote renewables must be placed in context. Historically, Latin America has developed and improved its economic and social standards due primarily to an economy based on the extractive industries and fossil fuels. This places renewables at the crossroads of multiple drivers, as the region seek to ensure security of supply, attract investment, and facilitate a low carbon energy transition.
Teoría de la regulación
Nuestro punto de partida es que estamos ante un derecho administrativo de la regulación por la configuración de la tríade regulatoria. La tríade regulatoria está representada por la regulación y la mejora regulatoria, por un lado; el cumplimiento normativo (compliance), por otro; y la fiscalización, por otro. Estos tres ángulos están estrechamente vinculados o relacionados, y cada cual cumple un papel o una función, pero deforma interrelacionada, lo que conlleva una verdadera transformación e innovación del derecho administrativo.
THE ROLE OF RENEWABLE ENERGY IN MEETING THE CLIMATE CHANGE TARGETS IN BRAZIL AND COLOMBIA
Climate change is a topic of worIdwide concern. Nevertheless, climate change, not being seen as a priority amongst other issues, has not yet been strongly incorporated into the environmental or economic policy agendas of developing countries. Nevertheless, evidence shows that some of the most adverse effects of climate change will be experienced by developing countries whose populations are the most vulnerable and least likely to be able to adapt to climate change. For instance, although Latín America countries represent only 9 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions, the social and economic impact of those emissions is significantly greater than in developed and emergent countries. This phenomenon is called "double inequity" where the impact of climate change is felt most deeply by poorest societies who are not the main emitters. In this respect, it is important that developing countries, especially South American countries, integrate climate change issues into their decision-making process, where energy policy plays an important role in their development. The main drivers behind contemporary energy policy are.
Trends and challenges in electricity and oil regulation
Universidad Externado de Colombia's Institute of Mining and Energy Law and its Research Group would like to present to the academic and professional community the work number 12 of the Collection in Mining and Energy Regulation, based on the electric and oil sector's specific analysis in its scientific original language. This book discusses the future scenario about offshore oll exploration and production in Colombia, the disputes that may arise in joint venture agreements based on the author's experience in the oil sector, and the general regulation of the electricity industry in Brazil. Besides, this book covers the role of consumers in energy efficiency programs and the compatibility of national renewable energies support schemes to the European Union free movement of goods law.
Net Zero and Natural Resources Law
States, corporations, and other actors worldwide have committed to measures aimed at bringing down global emissions to net zero by the year 2060 or earlier. While the need for a clean energy transition is clear, incoherently designed transition programs can pose complex environmental, social, and governance risks, including legal liability and protracted disputes. At the same time, the rush for minerals needed to manufacture clean energy technologies raises fundamental questions–most crucially, how to ensure the exploration and development of energy transition minerals in a manner that does not exacerbate resource conflicts, resource nationalism, human rights violations, protectionism, ene...
The role of the CSR policies focused on local content actions in host countries faced with governance gaps and mining operations
The idea that a private enterprise has a social function and some obligations to all stakeholders is not something that has always existed. Concepts like sustainable development and shared value appeared only after a long process of trial and error. Understanding the origins of the theory of corporate social responsibility and its evolution will allow us to be ever closer to solving the mystery of what should be the role of private capital in society. It will also help us determine its importance when facing significant challenges due to government absence or weakness over certain territories.
Routledge Handbook of Energy Law
The Routledge Handbook of Energy Law provides a definitive global survey of the discipline of Energy Law, capturing the essential and relevant issues in Energy today. Each chapter is written by a leading expert, and provides a contemporary overview of a significant area within the field. The book is divided into six geographical regions based on continents, with a separate section on Russia, an energy powerhouse that straddles both Europe and Asia. Each section contains highly topical chapters from authors who address a number of core themes in Energy Law and Regulation: • Energy security and the role of markets • Regulating the growth of renewable energy • Regulating shifts in traditi...
Innovación en la regulación de servicios, contratación pública, unidad de mercado e infracciones ambientales
A partir del derecho administrativo económico y la regulación, este libro aborda las tendencias en relación con la innovación en la regulación de servicios, tanto desde la experiencia española en materia de energía eléctrica, como desde la mirada chilena respecto de la regulación de los niveles de servicio en las concesiones de obras públicas. Ello se complementa con propuestas de académicos peruanos dirigidas a hacer más eficaz la regulación económica de los servicios públicos energéticos. Asimismo, la obra se dedica a la contratación pública desde la perspectiva de la lucha contra la corrupción —enfocando la amenaza de sanción administrativa como posible fuente de cor...
First Europe-Latin America Dialogue on Promotion of Energy Efficiency (Brussels, Belgium, 28-30 October 1998)
This report is a record of the meeting which was held to promote a dialogue between legislators, energy policy makers, regulators, representatives of power companies, specialised agencies and experts from Europe and Latin America, so that they could share experiences on legislative measures, regulatory mechanisms, and programmes to promote energy efficiency. The chapters discuss and analyse: energy cooperation between Europe and Latin America; the development of energy policies in the European Union; legislative measures and regulation adopted in the European Union; the main players and the programmes developed in the member states; European experiences with energy efficiency services and the progress that has been made in Latin America. The final chapter looks at the course of action of the United nations Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), and the conceptual approach with respect to the role of energy efficiency in the sustainable development of the energy sector.
