Introduction to European Energy Law is a beginner-level course designed to provide students with a foundational understanding of how energy is regulated within the European Union. Energy law stands at the very centre of contemporary climate policy, environmental protection, and debates on sustainable development. In today?s world, societies face the dual challenge of ensuring sufficient, reliable energy supplies while avoiding the global warming and climate change driven largely by fossil fuel consumption. As the demand for energy increases, the legal frameworks that govern the shift from fossil fuels to renewable and low-carbon sources?such as wind, solar, hydrogen, and nuclear energy?become more important than ever.
