EU Energy Law Volume III Book Two: Renewable Energy in the Member States of the EU 2nd Edition

This second edition’s core objective is to provide a complete overview on the relevance of renewable energy in all EU member states and the developments in these countries over time. To give an even broader perspective, contributions on some non-EU countries like USA, Switzerland, and China are also included. Not only are development plans and requirements by the state and other authorities covered in this volume, but also; support mechanisms; grid access rules and codes; authentication methods; cross-border trading and guarantees of origin; supervision of the renewable energy sector; overview of planning, construction, and operation; and the use of specific structural and cohesion funds for renewable energy project development.

Each country has its own chapter in which all these topics are discussed, and is written by a team of leading experts from all member states. There is even a chapter about Croatia (a member of the EU as of 01/07/2013).

Written by a team of leading experts from all present member states, plus USA, Switzerland, and China.
