This timely book examines the role played by regional authorities
in the EU in the transition towards renewable energy. Regional
governments generally have important decision-making powers
concerning energy transition, but they may encounter resistance to
the establishment of renewable energy activities in their
communities.Drawing on both academia and practice, the expert
contributors explore some of the key legal questions that have
emerged along the energy transition path. Specific attention is
paid to support mechanisms, administrative procedures for
authorizing renewable energy projects, including the relevance of
procedural rights as set out in the Aarhus Convention, and
opportunities for allowing citizens, particularly citizens living
near renewable energy projects, participate financially in
renewable energy production. Based on experiences in several Member
States (Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden and the Netherlands)
improvements to the content and application of the law are
discussed. The book shows the complexities of renewable energy law,
which will most likely become a controversial field of law in the
near future. Providing a much-needed contribution to the
literature, this is the first book to map legal questions around
renewable energy from the perspective of local governments. It will
have great appeal to scholars across both law and social sciences,
as well as to practitioners in governments, NGOs and law firms.

Erneuerbare Energien spielen fur das Erreichen der im
Kyoto-Protokoll vereinbarten CO2-Reduktionsziele eine zentrale
Rolle. Daher hat sich die Bundesregierung im Rahmen ihrer
nationalen Nachhaltigkeitsstrategie das Ziel gesetzt, den Anteil
erneuerbarer Energien am Gesamtenergieverbrauch zu steigern. Das
Buch stellt die Ergebnisse des vom BMU geforderten Projektes
"Strategische Umweltprufung und strategisches Umweltmonitoring fur
Offshore-Windenergieparks" unter der Leitung der Professur
Offentliches Recht der Leuphana Universitat Luneburg dar. Es
enthalt Grundlagen und Handlungsanleitungen fur die Durchfuhrung
der strategischen Umweltprufung im Offshore-Bereich auf der Basis
okologischer, planungsmethodischer und rechtlicher Fachkenntnis
unter besonderer Berucksichtigung des strategischen
Umweltmonitorings und der Integration globaler und uberregionaler
Umwelteffekte in den Umweltbericht.
