The past few years have witnessed a surge of judicial activity relating to renewable energy in the European Union. Several renewable-energy disputes have come before dispute-settlement bodies, such as the Court of Justice of the European Union, wto bodies, investment-dispute tribunals, and national courts. Behind these disputes is often a tension between, on the one hand, state- or European Union-level regulations seeking to promote renewable energy and achieve climate-policy objectives, and, on the other, economic considerations related to investor protection and free movement of goods.
