Pending Eu Disputes in the Wto: Challenges to Eu Energy Law and Policy
Tamara Perišin
Abstract
In the last several years, there has been a surprising number
of energy-related disputes in the WTO. In seven such cases, the
EU has taken the role of respondent. There are four different groups
of these cases: the first are disputes concerning EU standards on biofuels
and other renewable energy sources; the second are disputes
on EU Member State measures implementing these EU standards on
biofuels and renewables; the third are cases directed against internal
market measures in the field of energy; and the fourth concern EU
anti-dumping duties. These disputes are vital, as they could affect the
future of EU energy law and policy, with implications for the internal
market, environmental protection and national security.
