Climate goals and energy targets: legal perspectives
The seminar will focus on the enforceability in court of these climate goals and energy targets: Are they enforceable in court? Will they impact new or existing projects? To whom will the extra costs be passed on?
During the break and after the seminar, there will be plenty of opportunities to exchange ideas with the speakers and other attendees.
