Ec energy law (1st ed )
Langue : Anglais
Auteur : WAELDE Thomas
This book pulls together the different strands of EC law affecting energy, rather than taking a country by country approach to the subject. It offers an accessible but comprehensive account of the developments of policy relating to energy and addresses the key issues that have emerged, such as security of supply, public service, national/regional competitiveness, environmental issues and employment implications. It then situates these within a broader context of global energy development.
