The Development of a Comprehensive Legal Framework for the Promotion of Offshore Wind Power - The Lessons from Europe and Pacific Asia Auteur Ming-Zhi Gao A., Chien-Te Fan Date 2017 Source IUCN (ID: MON-094156) Éditeur | Lieu de publication Wolters Kluwer | The Hague, The Netherlands ISBN 9789041183972 Type du document Monographie/livre Langue Anglais Champ d'application International Sujet Énergie Mot clé Énergie renouvelable Aire géographique Europe Résumé There is clearly an urgent need worldwide to increase the share of renewable energy in the overall energy supply as rapidly as possible. With a well-developed and proven feasible technology, offshore wind power has come to the fore as the most promising means of achieving this goal. However, fragmented authorities and procedures may pose tremendous challenges to the development of an integrated legal framework for offshore wind and the complex installation and grid interconnections it requires. This book surveys and analyses the features essential for the development of such a framework, drawing on the experience of ten countries that have such schemes in place – France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Italy, Norway, the United States, Australia, China, Korea, and Taiwan.
