Table of Contents

Introduction; Part I. 28 National Support Schemes in Regulatory Competition: 1. Regulation of renewable electricity in the internal electricity market: (still) a preserve of Member States; 2. The regulatory options from an economic point of view: superiority of prices over quantities under real-world conditions; 3. The times they are a-changin'? The evolution of support schemes in Member States over time; Part II. Regulatory Competition and Union Law Protecting the Internal Market: 4. Union law on state aid: down for the count, but not knocked out by PreussenElektra; 5. Union law on free movement of goods: the protection of the environment justifies (nearly) everything, except for 'buy European' clauses for equipment; 6. Prohibition of internal customs duties and discriminatory taxation: the sometimes forgotten straightjacket; Part III. Toward a Common Market for Renewable Electricity?: 7. 2013 to 2015 – years of upheaval?; 8. Regulatory options for the creation of a common market; 9. Regulatory cross fertilization across the Atlantic.

Reviews

'There is no shortage of publications on legal questions concerning the promotion of renewable energy in the internal electricity market. However [this book] stands out from the crowd. This is, first, due to the approach and eloquence of the author. The presentation convinces because of its linguistic conciseness and the ability of the author to put positions and developments into the bigger picture ... the second part, in which the author ... discusses the compatibility of national support schemes with the internal market, captivates thanks to the meticulous and competent analysis of the case law of the European Court of Justice. Even in the chapter on the compatibility of national support with State aid law, where one thought that everything had already been written, Rusche succeeds in creating added value for the academic debate by creating a system of case groups ... A true pleasure to read and a source of new insights ...' Kathrin Dingemann, translated from Europaische Zeitschrift fur Wirtschaftsrecht 'This book is compulsory reading for everyone who wishes to venture out beyond the debate on the actual state with regard to the highly topical subject 'energy revolution' and the associated competitive aspects, and who is looking for new, and at the same time realistic, food for thought as concerns the future support for renewable electricity from a political, legal and economic perspective.' Carolin Klein, European State Aid Law Quarterly
