This course teaches foundational principles in energy law and regulation. We will trace the history of modern energy production, transportation and distribution and explore regulation of those enterprises by state and federal courts, legislators and regulators. We will pay particular attention to the regulation of natural gas and electricity and the partial restructuring of those industries. We will also discuss contemporary challenges for the energy system, including those related to climate change, energy justice, and the energy transition.
