A legal approach to sustainable energy democracy

Description

In this podcast, Dr Kaisa Huhta and Dr Leonie Reins discuss their upcoming book Sustainable Energy Democracy and the Law. As a concept, sustainable energy democracy focuses on questions such as who can participate in activities in the energy sector, what are the new roles for individual citizens in the energy transition and what are the benefits and the risks associated with these new roles. In this podcast, Dr Huhta and Dr Reins discuss how these questions can be viewed from a legal point of view. They explain the concept of sustainable energy democracy in a legal context and provide insights into how the concept can be translated into concrete legal instruments in practice.
