The offshore wind energy industry is growing at an encouraging rate, and Australia is seeking to commence offshore wind development. Although there is research on the planning and environmental risks, there is limited research addressing health and safety risks. Some scholars argue the two industries are different, while others support the application of offshore petroleum safety to wind. This article analyses whether the industries have many similarities, and whether the safety case provides the most robust safety regulatory framework for both industries, concluding that Australia’s approach is a solid foundation for safety in the developing wind industry.
海上风能产业正以令人鼓舞的速度增长,澳大利亚正在寻求开始海上风能开发。虽然有关于规划和环境风险的研究,但关于健康和安全风险的研究有限。一些学者认为这两个行业是不同的,而另一些人则支持将海上石油安全应用于风能。本文分析了这两个行业是否有许多相似之处,以及安全案例是否为两个行业提供了最健全的安全监管框架,结论是澳大利亚的方法为发展中的风能行业的安全奠定了坚实的基础。

Over the last three years, corporate interest in voluntary carbon markets has almost tripled, and this trend has seemed to resist the COVID-19 economic fallout. If managed well, this market has the potential to become a very significant driver of mitigation action, in particular in developing countries, which supply the majority of voluntary carbon offsets. Robust standards and rules can overcome concerns that voluntary carbon markets could lead to company greenwashing and undermine the goals of the Paris Agreement. On the contrary, voluntary corporate investments can encourage more ambitious government climate action, and encourage governments to make more ambitious pledges under the Paris Agreement. Multisectoral mitigation partnerships can ensure the complementarity of public and private action and support policy alignment and investments in priority sectors and regions.
在过去三年中,企业对自愿碳市场的兴趣几乎增加了两倍,这一趋势似乎抵制住了COVID-19的经济影响。如果管理得当,这一市场有可能成为缓解行动的一个非常重要的推动力,特别是在提供大部分自愿碳抵消的发展中国家。强有力的标准和规则可以克服人们的担忧,即自愿碳市场可能导致企业“漂绿”,破坏《巴黎协定》的目标。相反,企业自愿投资可以鼓励政府采取更雄心勃勃的气候行动,并鼓励政府在《巴黎协定》下做出更雄心勃勃的承诺。多部门缓解伙伴关系可确保公共和私人行动的互补性,并支持对重点部门和区域的政策协调和投资。

The achievement of a radical global reduction of greenhouse gases requires a legal-institutional setting capable of facilitating such a transition on a wide range of renewable technologies. This paper identifies and critically evaluates the key institutional, procedural and substantive legal mechanisms facilitating or preventing sustainable production of blue renewable energy with Finland as a case study country. The focus is on offshore wind power and hydropower. While we approach energy transition from the perspective of an EU member state, we simultaneously shed light on the relevant parts of the EU legal framework that significantly affect national legal frameworks.
要在全球范围内彻底减少温室气体,就需要一种能够促进在广泛的可再生技术上实现这种过渡的法律体制环境。本文以芬兰为例,确定并批判性地评估了促进或阻止蓝色可再生能源可持续生产的关键体制、程序和实质性法律机制。重点是海上风力发电和水力发电。当我们从欧盟成员国的角度看待能源转型时,我们同时揭示了欧盟法律框架中对国家法律框架有重大影响的相关部分。

International climate change law embodied in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Paris Agreement entails commitments to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases, mainly from the use of fossil fuels. The development of fossil fuel mineral resources, especially coal, is becoming less attractive. Although it can be argued that countries, especially developing countries, should have a right to develop their coal resources, there is no general exception to the international agreements to that effect. The agreements address emissions and do not directly prevent fossil fuel extraction at the present. Emission reduction measures are not the only factors causing uncertainty in international coal markets. No tenable argument can be made for exceptions to the climate change agreements on the basis of the right to development, sustainable development or permanent sovereignty over natural resources; and pressure to reduce the use of fossil fuels, at the corporate level or in international affairs, is legitimate and to be expected. A low-carbon future means changes for mining, and coal mining in particular does not have a legal claim to business as usual operation immune from international efforts to reduce harm to the climate.
《联合国气候变化框架公约》和《巴黎协定》所体现的国际气候变化法要求各国承诺减少温室气体排放,主要是化石燃料的使用。化石燃料矿产资源特别是煤炭的开发吸引力正在下降。虽然可以说各国,特别是发展中国家应有权开发其煤炭资源,但在这方面的国际协定中没有一般例外。这些协议涉及排放问题,目前并未直接阻止化石燃料的开采。减排措施并不是造成国际煤炭市场不确定性的唯一因素。不能以发展权、可持续发展权或对自然资源的永久主权为基础,提出气候变化协定的例外;在企业层面或国际事务中,要求减少化石燃料使用的压力是合理的,也是意料之中的。低碳的未来意味着采矿业的变化,尤其是煤炭开采,没有法律要求像往常一样经营,不受国际社会减少对气候危害的努力的影响。

This paper investigates national ‘climate change acts’. Climate change acts are a newly emerging, innovative form of legislation designed to drive down economy-wide greenhouse gas emissions. They impact the energy sector most particularly, as the most abundant source of global greenhouse gas emissions. The analysis highlights various conceptual, definitional and linguistic problems that arise where one seeks to apply the term ‘climate change act’ meaningfully in the context of climate and energy law and policy discourse. It is demonstrated that such difficulties exert a latent undermining influence on technical and analytical coherence in the field. Means of reducing or avoiding these sorts of problems going forward are outlined and discussed. As part of this process, a working definition of this emerging form of legislation is set out in careful exacting terms. Here, its meaning is equated with the technical descriptor ‘national framework climate legislation’. Consideration is also accorded to the future of climate change acts in this analytical setting, and extant commentary engaging the notion of second-generation climate policy is drawn upon in order to construct a working definition of second-generation climate change acts that can usefully inform aspects of analysis in going forward.
本文调查了各国的“气候变化行为”。气候变化法案是一种新兴的创新立法形式,旨在降低整个经济的温室气体排放。它们对能源部门的影响最为严重,因为能源部门是全球温室气体排放最丰富的来源。该分析强调了在气候和能源法律和政策话语的背景下有意义地应用“气候变化法案”一词时出现的各种概念、定义和语言问题。事实证明,这些困难对该领域的技术和分析一致性产生潜在的破坏性影响。本文概述并讨论了今后减少或避免这类问题的方法。作为这一过程的一部分,对这一新兴立法形式的工作定义是用谨慎严格的术语提出的。在这里,它的含义等同于技术描述词“国家框架气候立法”。在这种分析背景下,还考虑了气候变化行为的未来,并借鉴了涉及第二代气候政策概念的现有评论,以构建第二代气候变化行为的工作定义,从而可以有效地为未来的分析提供信息。

Navigating the emerging lithium rush: lithium extraction from brines for clean-tech battery storage technologies 引领新兴的锂热:从盐水中提取锂用于清洁技术电池存储技术

The expansion of electric vehicle technologies and renewable energy storage will increasingly depend on lithium-ion batteries. Current lithium extraction operations are far from the environmentally and socially compliant operations desired by the ‘clean-tech’ industry. However, an innovative and more compliant lithium extraction process has emerged. Several companies are actively working on scrubbing lithium from lithium-enriched brines by purifying wastewater from oil and gas operations or through standalone extraction facilities. This paper examines the legal considerations and risks associated with the development of a novel lithium brine extraction industry in Western Canada, primarily focused on Alberta as a traditional oil and gas jurisdiction. Our analysis of Alberta's subsurface regimes identifies and discusses ambiguities that the Alberta government may need to address for this emerging subsurface industry. Similarly, we identify unique contractual considerations for counsel to contemplate when advising parties involved in this new industry. We conclude that the current legal landscape in Alberta, from both a regulatory and a contractual perspective, needs further clarification in order to attract a large-scale and viable industry. Nevertheless, we emphasise that Western Canada is ripe with opportunity to commercialise on a new lithium extraction industry and take note of the increased governmental interest in the development of this emerging industry.
电动汽车技术和可再生能源存储的扩展将越来越依赖于锂离子电池。目前的锂提取操作与“清洁技术”行业所期望的环境和社会合规操作相去甚远。然而,一种创新的、更符合要求的锂提取工艺已经出现。一些公司正在积极致力于通过净化油气作业废水或通过独立的提取设施从富锂盐水中去除锂。本文探讨了与加拿大西部新型锂盐开采行业发展相关的法律考虑因素和风险,主要集中在阿尔伯塔省作为传统的石油和天然气管辖区。我们对艾伯塔省地下系统的分析确定并讨论了艾伯塔省政府可能需要解决的这个新兴地下产业的模糊性。同样,我们确定了独特的合同考虑因素,供法律顾问在为涉及这个新行业的各方提供咨询时考虑。我们的结论是,从监管和合同的角度来看,阿尔伯塔省目前的法律环境需要进一步澄清,以吸引大规模和可行的行业。然而,我们强调,加拿大西部有成熟的机会将新的锂提取行业商业化,并注意到政府对这一新兴行业发展的兴趣日益增加。

The objective of this article is to critically examine the regulatory framework associated with reclamation bonding mechanism in Indonesia. It suggests that the failure of the Indonesian reclamation bonding mechanism is due to a lack of regulatory clarity and the consequent weaknesses in law enforcement. In this context, this article reviews the existing literature on policy models pertaining to bonding mechanisms before arriving at the conclusion that the worst-case scenario described by Costanza and others (2015) represents the most apt remedy to improve Indonesia's reclamation bonding mechanism policy. Under a worst-case scenario bonding mechanism, the bond value is set up according to the costs associated with the most extensive probable environmental destruction. Such costs are over and above those associated with identified environmental damage. Companies intending to conduct mining activities are required to provide such a bond upfront, prior to commencing their exploration and operation–production.
这篇文章的目的是严格审查监管框架与填海结合机制在印度尼西亚。报告指出,印度尼西亚填海结合机制的失败是由于缺乏监管明确性以及随之而来的执法薄弱。在此背景下,本文回顾了与粘合机制相关的政策模型的现有文献,然后得出结论,Costanza等人(2015)描述的最坏情况代表了改善印度尼西亚填海粘合机制政策的最合适补救措施。在最坏情况债券机制下,债券价值是根据与最广泛的可能环境破坏相关的成本来确定的。这些费用远远超过与已查明的环境损害有关的费用。打算进行采矿活动的公司必须在开始勘探和作业生产之前预先提供这种保证金。

Energy and Geopolitics 能源与地缘政治

Most scholars in the energy field believe that cross-border energy activities are closely linked to a state’s foreign policies. Due to the fear of using up finite fossil fuels, major import-dependent states compete for global influence to secure energy supply. Nevertheless, the discussion of securitising energy supply narrowly focuses on oil and gas, and rarely analyses actions of less powerful actors (eg environmental organisations or even engineers). Energy and Geopolitics significantly contributes to discussions about energy geopolitics by providing a holistic perspective – ‘seeking to understand the totality of things and how everything is interconnected with everything else’ (p 14). This analytical perspective is justified by connections between energy systems, different kinds of energy resources and socio-economic/political contexts. Therefore, analysing the geopolitics of one energy resource cannot overshadow its supply activities in the system, its interaction with other energy resources and its impact on social, economic and political actors. Högselius further argues that ‘we cannot properly grasp energy and geopolitics without taking into account the totality of global energy, viewing different energy sources and energy forms as constituents of a single whole’ (p 7). Chapter 2 lays the theoretical foundation and provides more details on why a systemic perspective is useful in comprehending energy in the geopolitical context. The author introduces the concept of energy systems, which he defines as ‘a set of technical and non-technical components – plus the links between them – that jointly enable energy in one or the other form to be delivered to end users’ (p 15). The systems are categorised by Högselius based on disparate energy resources, geographical scope or other standards. These systems relate to each other in various forms. Therefore, understanding the interaction of these energy systems could provide a more comprehensive analysis of the geopolitics driving one energy supply system (eg the interactions between fossil fuels and renewable energy).

能源领域的大多数学者认为,跨境能源活动与一国的外交政策密切相关。由于担心耗尽有限的化石燃料,主要依赖进口的国家竞相争夺全球影响力,以确保能源供应。然而,关于能源供应证券化的讨论仅限于石油和天然气,很少分析实力较弱的参与者(例如环保组织,甚至工程师)的行为。《能源与地缘政治》通过提供一个整体的视角——“寻求理解事物的整体以及万物如何相互联系”——对能源地缘政治的讨论做出了重大贡献(第14页)。能源系统、不同种类的能源和社会经济/政治背景之间的联系证明了这种分析观点是合理的。因此,分析一种能源的地缘政治不能掩盖其在系统中的供应活动、与其他能源的相互作用及其对社会、经济和政治行动者的影响。Högselius进一步认为,“如果不考虑全球能源的总量,将不同的能源和能源形式视为一个整体的组成部分,我们就不能正确地掌握能源和地缘政治”(第7页)。第2章奠定了理论基础,并提供了更多细节,说明为什么系统视角有助于理解地缘政治背景下的能源。作者介绍了能源系统的概念,他将其定义为“一组技术和非技术组件-加上它们之间的联系-共同使能源以一种或另一种形式交付给最终用户”(第15页)。这些系统根据不同的能源资源、地理范围或其他标准通过Högselius进行分类。这些系统以各种形式相互联系。因此,了解这些能源系统之间的相互作用可以更全面地分析驱动能源供应系统的地缘政治因素(例如化石燃料和可再生能源之间的相互作用)。此外,能源系统本质上是社会技术的。行动者与能源系统中技术实体的互动有助于理解能源供应系统的权力结构。在讨论演员的时候
{"title":"Energy and Geopolitics","authors":"Xiao-lei Gong","doi":"10.1080/02646811.2020.1855019","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/02646811.2020.1855019","url":null,"abstract":"Most scholars in the energy field believe that cross-border energy activities are closely linked to a state’s foreign policies. Due to the fear of using up finite fossil fuels, major import-dependent states compete for global influence to secure energy supply. Nevertheless, the discussion of securitising energy supply narrowly focuses on oil and gas, and rarely analyses actions of less powerful actors (eg environmental organisations or even engineers). Energy and Geopolitics significantly contributes to discussions about energy geopolitics by providing a holistic perspective – ‘seeking to understand the totality of things and how everything is interconnected with everything else’ (p 14). This analytical perspective is justified by connections between energy systems, different kinds of energy resources and socio-economic/political contexts. Therefore, analysing the geopolitics of one energy resource cannot overshadow its supply activities in the system, its interaction with other energy resources and its impact on social, economic and political actors. Högselius further argues that ‘we cannot properly grasp energy and geopolitics without taking into account the totality of global energy, viewing different energy sources and energy forms as constituents of a single whole’ (p 7). Chapter 2 lays the theoretical foundation and provides more details on why a systemic perspective is useful in comprehending energy in the geopolitical context. The author introduces the concept of energy systems, which he defines as ‘a set of technical and non-technical components – plus the links between them – that jointly enable energy in one or the other form to be delivered to end users’ (p 15). The systems are categorised by Högselius based on disparate energy resources, geographical scope or other standards. These systems relate to each other in various forms. Therefore, understanding the interaction of these energy systems could provide a more comprehensive analysis of the geopolitics driving one energy supply system (eg the interactions between fossil fuels and renewable energy). Additionally, the energy systems are sociotechnical in nature. Actors’ interaction with technical entities in the energy systems helps in understanding the power structure of the energy supply systems.
