    This short chapter provides a brief introduction to the key steps of how to reform energy law. Initially, there is a need to understand energy law and its origin and its relationship with other disciplines through the energy life-cycle. Then the article details the drivers of energy law, four recent positive developments, and finally the seven principles of energy law. Finally, there is a discussion on legal certainty and how it is developed through the application of the energy law principles and the recent new initiatives. As legal certainty will provide the platform for long-term change in energy sector through ensuring there is investment.<br/

    From evaluating policy delivery on wind farms in Texas in the US, to developing nuclear power in the Middle East, this book presents fresh thinking on key concepts and ideas on energy law and policy delivery. Experts in energy from across the European Union and the United States contribute short chapters each on how best to achieve energy policy objectives. The contributors write from a range of perspectives, including the sciences, law, politics, economics and engineering

    Halsbury’s Laws of England volume 42 (2018) contains the first part of the title new title ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE AND SUPPLY. Volume 43 (2018) contains the second part of ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE AND SUPPLY and the first part of the new title ENERGY MARKETS AND PROVIDERS. Volume 44 (2018) contains the second part of ENERGY MARKETS AND PROVIDERS and the new title ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND SUSTAINABILITY. Volume 42, 43, 44 (2018) replace the ENERGY AND CLIMATE CHANGE title which was previously contained in volumes 42, 43 and 44 (2011). Elements of the FORMER ENERGY AND CLIMATE CHANGE title have also been incorporated into the forthcoming ENVIRONMENTAL LAW title. Until that title is published, volume 42 (2011) should be retained. Volume 43 (2011) and volume 44 (2011) may now be archived

    Delivering a low-carbon electricity system in a liberalised market

    No full text
    This chapter discusses the challenges of delivering a low-carbon electricity system in mainland Great Britain. GB’s integrated network was established by the Electricity (Supply) Act 1926. And was privatised by the Electricity Act 1989. The industry in 2015 consists of more than 300 companies. Eight are involved in large-scale power generation, one operates the 400 kV and 275 kV high-voltage transmission network and six operate extensive distribution networks at 132 kV or lower voltages. There are six major electricity retailers who purchase energy from generators in half-hourly auctions and sell it to private and commercial consumers. In addition, there are many smaller generators and local distribution companies. The chapter discusses the challenges of moving from a centralised generating system to one reliant on thousands of individual generators in a nominally privatised and liberalised marke

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
