| Abstract: | In the absence of any likely international law in the near future to impose comprehensive obligations on nations to take action to promote renewable energy or energy conservation, such action will be required at national level. This paper proposes a generic legislative framework for the control and development of all types of renewable energy and energy conservation. This framework can be adopted, subject to suitable modification according to local conditions and the prevailing legal system, by all interested nations. The framework would replace the piecemeal, ad hoc approach to law reform which characterises past developments in this area. |
