Synopsis

EU climate law is one of the most dynamic and fastest growing areas of EU law. This exciting new textbook provides a comprehensive account of essential EU climate mitigation law. In addition, the contents cover a number of important and topical issues related to the EU's efforts to tackle climate change.

Written by some of the key thinkers on EU climate law from the University of Groningen, each chapter addresses the relevant directives and regulations as well as their implementation issues, explaining how this affects current policy and academic debate. The chapters therefore not only describe but also critically reflect upon EU climate law.

Key features include:

  • Comprehensive introduction to EU climate mitigation law
  • Discussion of the climate targets and instruments of the EU
  • Review of the relevant climate-related directives and regulations
  • Analysis of their implementation problems
  • Relationship between climate law and broader issues including energy law
  • Educational design based on reviews by climate law students

The combination of educational design and analytical accuracy makes the textbook suitable for both students and professionals. This introduction is highly recommended for courses on EU climate mitigation law, also in the context of broader curricula on climate law, energy law and EU law in general.
