Opis

Ongoing developments in the EU energy market make it necessary to reflect on some of the primary issues related to the public legal impact on the European energy sector, and the proposed book answers this necessity by delving into European energy law. The author offers a brief explanation of the background operation of the electricity sector, as well as of liberalisation within the area, and traces the evolution of the European Union’s approach towards the issue of public law regulation within the electricity sector. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of EU energy law and policy.
