International Encyclopaedia of Laws - Energy Law

Each national monograph in this series contains a general introduction, a description of the country’s energy legislation, an overview of the basic principles of energy law, the historical background, the role of governmental institutions, and the sources of energy law in that country’s legal system. Regulatory systems are fully described for each of the following in the jurisdictions in which they are exploited:

• electricity;
• gas;
• petrol; and
• coal.

In addition, the complete Energy Law section of the International Encyclopaedia of Laws includes an international monograph covering international legislation and treaties.

Lawyers who handle transnational conveyances of energy materials will greatly appreciate clear explanation of the relevant regulatory system. Academics and researchers will appreciate its value in the study of comparative energy law.

The International Encyclopaedia of Laws is peer-reviewed under the responsibility of the editors and the general editor’s office.
