Global Energy and Resources Law

LAWS6964

The unit will provide perspectives on global energy security, international access to energy resources and the resolution of cross-jurisdictional energy access disputes. In addition, it will deal with more conventional aspects of Energy and Resources Law such as: land Law including Native Title; energy resources and approvals; dealings and registrations; environmental Protection Law; and financial aspects such as project finance, energy trading and taxation. The reform of the energy market in Australia and its implications for competition Law, third Party access and trade practices, as well as the interface between energy resources and global climate change, will be canvassed. The unit will be taught by a team of experts including members of Sydney Law School, such as Ms Penny Crossley, and members of the profession. Each year, on the evening before the commencement of class the annual 'Kevin McCann Global Energy and Resources Law Lecture' will be delivered, to which all students will be invited.
