Energy Law In Lithuania

Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this book provides a systematic approach to legislation and legal practice concerning energy resources and production in Lithuania. The book describes the administrative organization, regulatory framework, and relevant case law pertaining to the development, application, and use of such forms of energy as electricity, gas, petroleum, and coal, with attention as needed to the pervasive legal effects of competition law, environmental law, and tax law. A general introduction covers the geography of energy resources, sources and basic principles of energy law, and the relevant governmental institutions. Then follows a detailed description of specific legislation and regulation affecting such factors as documentation, undertakings, facilities, storage, pricing, procurement and sales, transportation, transmission, distribution, and supply of each form of energy. Case law, intergovernmental cooperation agreements, and interactions with environmental, tax, and competition law are explained. Its succinct yet scholarly nature, as well as the practical quality of the information it provides, make this book a valuable resource for energy sector policymakers and energy firm counsel handling cases affecting Lithuania. It will also be welcomed by researchers and academics for its contribution to the study of a complex field that today stands at the foreground of comparative law.

As part of the mandate of the Academy, a significant topic of interregional research will be identified each year and the results presented at an annual meeting and published for wide dissemination. The research focus for 2003 is "The Law of Energy for Sustainable Development". As part of this effort, the Academy has assembled for the first time a volume of legal instruments which can be recognized as constituting the core of the law of energy for sustainable development. This volume will be an essential reference for all involved in environmental and energy research.

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2013 in the subject Energy Sciences, grade: 1.4, Stralsund University of Applied Sciences, course: Renewable Energy, language: English, abstract: Due to the renewable energies nowadays being of a great relevance in the European Union and recent solar energy sector issues in Lithuania and its relevance to investors and the country, the aim of this bachelor thesis is to create a model that would suggest the measures, actions, improvements for the solar energy sector of Lithuania in order to promote a better development of the sector and achieve more effective results, improve the current situation and future prospects of the solar energy sector in Lithuania and increase the attractiveness of investing in it.

Due to the renewable energies nowadays being of a great relevance in the European Union and recent solar energy sector issues in Lithuania and its relevance to investors and the country, the aim of this study is to suggest the ways to improve the solar energy sector of Lithuania in order to increase the attractiveness of investing in it. The ways of improvement are based on existing examples within the European Union. The best features of development models that were proven to be successful in one or several countries of the European Union were adjusted to be eligible for solar energy sector of Lithuania. This book contains an overview of solar energy sectors in the European Union as well as the analysis and comparison of the data. It also presents the suggestions that could be used as a development model to improve the solar energy sector in Lithuania.

International energy law is an elusive but important concept. There is no body of law called Šinternational energy law�, nor is there any universally accepted definition for it, yet many specialised areas of international law have a direct relationship

The world's energy structure underpins the global environmental crisis and changing it will require regulatory change at a massive level. Energy is highly regulated in international law, but the field has never been comprehensively mapped. The legal sources on which the governance of energy is based are plentiful but they are scattered across a vast legal expanse. This book is the first single-authored study of the international law of energy as a whole. Written by a world-leading expert, it provides a comprehensive account of the international law of energy and analyses the implications of the ongoing energy transformation for international law. The study combines conceptual and doctrinal analysis of all the main rules, processes and institutions to consider the past, present and likely future of global energy governance. Providing a solid foundation for teaching, research and practice, this book addresses both the theory and real-world policy dimension of the international law of energy.

Provides the first scholarly and comprehensive book on the national renewable energy laws of every country that has them (113 countries).
