States facing chronic conflict and instability, and falling short of fundamental norms of international law as enshrined in the United Nations Charter, are labelled as ‘failed States’ without recognising the deterioration of the global order. This article submits that the one-dimensional notion of a ‘failed State’ is problematic and unhelpful. It advocates a more nuanced, sustainability-based approach of State failure in addressing problems associated with governance of energy resources. It does so with reference to two examples from State practice: Russia’s position in the Arctic region in light of the receding ice cap and estimated hydrocarbon reserves in the Arctic Ocean, and the recent US-brokered maritime boundary agreement between Lebanon and Israel enabling Lebanon to gain access to disputed offshore resources without Russian involvement.","PeriodicalId":229000,"journal":{"name":"Global Energy Law and Sustainability","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135055427","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The EU has entered the CRM arms race with the EU Commission's proposed CRM Act, which sets non-binding targets aimed at bolstering domestic production of strategic raw materials by 2030. As the EU is significantly reliant on third country imports of these materials, these targets are particularly ambitious, not least in light of the EU's limited industrial policy remit. Changes to permitting processes, the creation of Strategic Projects based on sustainability criteria and stronger international cooperation are key factors likely to shape the extent to which the CRM Act will enable the EU to compete for these naturally finite but critical materials.","PeriodicalId":229000,"journal":{"name":"Global Energy Law and Sustainability","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135055430","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Global South possesses copious amounts of minerals such as copper, graphite, lithium, cobalt, and nickel, making it a focal point in the energy transition. Responsible and prudent utilisation of the Global South's mineral resources will support its economic growth and development. To realise this potential, however, it is necessary to recognise the unique requirements of these broad regions, which go beyond economic importance and security of supply, typically the primary determinants of minerals criticality in the Global North. Developing a sustainable value chain for critical minerals in the Global South requires robust policy and legal and regulatory frameworks incorporating environmental protection, social responsibility, and harnessing the economic benefits of a growing mining industry. This article sets out some of the policy foundations that may contribute to the design of these frameworks.","PeriodicalId":229000,"journal":{"name":"Global Energy Law and Sustainability","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135055435","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Government of Canada 1 is the first investment arbitration case in the oil and gas sector in which the host state has taken measures to enforce its domestic sustainable development laws and regulations. In this case, the Canadian government prohibited fracking in the St. Lawrence River basin in Quebec, despite having previously issued a permit, by placing the precautionary principle, which is a principle of sustainable development, as the criterion. The tribunal did not find the host government's action to be a violation of the investor's rights, although it was unable to answer the question of whether the implementation of the precautionary principle constitutes a public purpose according to the NAFTA expropriation standard. However, it is notable that in the submissions of the parties and amicus curiae, reference has been made to the precautionary principle on the basis of applicable domestic and international law. Another feature of this case is that the arbitral tribunal decided to grant the request for participation of amicus curiae by an environmental NGO, and in distinct sections of the final award, it mentioned the views of the environmental group. The implementation of sustainable development is crucial in the field of petroleum arbitrations, given the extent of environmental degradation caused by these projects. Even though this case pertains to North America, it may mark the beginning of a global transformation that affects the petroleum producing countries throughout the world. Additionally, it may open a door for arbitration tribunals to establish compatibility between the standards of investor protection and sustainable development principles such as precaution and public participation.","PeriodicalId":229000,"journal":{"name":"Global Energy Law and Sustainability","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135055433","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article reviews ongoing efforts to lay down a regulatory framework to move from natural gas to renewable hydrogen and, not least, to define renewable hydrogen. As a strategic net-zero industry, renewable hydrogen is to grow and flourish in hydrogen valleys, meaning a place where energy production and multiple-uses will meet and expand. This requires substantial EU financial support, at least until renewable hydrogen becomes a mature technology that can compete in the market with today's cheaper (and polluting) fossil-based hydrogen. While there are open questions about the pace and viability of hydrogen-related technologies and infrastructure, for instance concerning long-distance transportation, hydrogen valleys appear as a no-regret option encompassing renewable energy production, repurposed gas infrastructure, electricity grid and batteries. If successfully implemented, the option would enhance renewable hydrogen production and the decarbonisation of the industry and transport.","PeriodicalId":229000,"journal":{"name":"Global Energy Law and Sustainability","volume":"113 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135055422","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The region possesses a significant share of the world’s lithium reserves, attracting attention from global stakeholders. However, governments in Latin America are asserting greater control over the mineral’s industry. Chile plans to establish a state-owned enterprise for lithium production, potentially requiring private companies to form joint ventures with the government. Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, and Chile are engaged in discussions regarding the creation of a lithium OPEC-like organization aimed at controlling global prices. Bolivia already exercises near-complete control over its lithium industry. These developments reflect a trend of increased government control over strategic mineral resources with implications for the global supply chain of lithium and clean energy transitions.","PeriodicalId":229000,"journal":{"name":"Global Energy Law and Sustainability","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135055432","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
