Скачать или смотреть Dr. Martin Jarrett: Energy Charter Treaty - Clean Energy Debate: Appreciating the Legal Complexities

Should the Energy Charter Treaty (‘ECT’) be modernised or terminated? As the contracting parties head into another round of negotiations for the modernisation process, numerous calls have been made in the media for termination. A key premise in the argument leading to that conclusion posits that the ECT will obstruct this energy transition. The reason for this obstruction is that as contracting parties implement the policies needed for the energy transition, they will have to pay out compensation under the ECT to investors in carbon-energy production. In this video, Dr. Martin Jarrett, Senior Researcher at the Max-Planck-Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law critically examines the idea that contracting parties will necessarily accrue legal responsibility under the ECT for transiting to clean-energy economies.
