Event Details
On 21 April 2023, the Investment Treaty Forum brings together senior practitioners, representatives of States, arbitrators, academics and other experts to discuss energy disputes between investors and states.
Geopolitical turbulence, advances in technology and the growing demand for renewable energy sources present particular challenges to regulators. The new regulations and the market fluctuations of energy problems create peculiar problems for investors who enter into join ventures, conclude product sharing and investment agreements with stabilisation clauses and other provisions aimed at protecting their interests.
Inevitably disputes arise, and a significant share of them relate to the transition to energy disputes resulting from transition to green economy and regulatory changes, which these changes result into.
We also see a greater prominence of new types of disputes, including decommissioning disputes and disputes related to hydrogen.
The one-day conference will discuss this and other complex issues arising in the context of energy disputes between investors and states.
