Energy and Environment: Multiregulation in Europe

About this book

This volume shows how real and difficult the issues of growing environmental awareness and liberalization of the energy sector actually are. Especially in relation to regulation and policy making in Europe. It looks at individual European countries and discusses their own policies towards energy and the environment, and the differing priorities which influence those policies. The book also dicusses the problem of multiregulation in the European Union as a whole, and looks at how those wishing to join the EU must solve the problem of multiregulation in their home country.
