After a description of the meaning of sustainable development in International Environmental Law, the book exposes the progress of international legislation in the field of sustainable energy. The energy discipline looks generic, incomplete and fragmentary, offering, however, interesting ideas for the adoption of international legislation specifically oriented to the sector concerned. The European Union's policy on sustainable development is reflected on the Union's legislation on sustainable energy, particularly in relation to energy efficiency and the production of energy from renewable sources. This discipline is lately more incisive than the previous. In order to the consequences of the political choices of the European Union on the regulation of domestic law, the final reflection is dedicated to the results of the application of the principle of subsidiarity to the sector concerned.

Abstract
After a description of the meaning of sustainable development in International Environmental Law, the book exposes the progress of international legislation in the field of sustainable energy. The energy discipline looks generic, incomplete and fragmentary, offering, however, interesting ideas for the adoption of international legislation specifically oriented to the sector concerned. The European Union's policy on sustainable development is reflected on the Union's legislation on sustainable energy, particularly in relation to energy efficiency and the production of energy from renewable sources. This discipline is lately more incisive than the previous. In order to the consequences of the political choices of the European Union on the regulation of domestic law, the final reflection is dedicated to the results of the application of the principle of subsidiarity to the sector concerned.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
