Our society is changing continuously and at an increasing pace. On societal level, but also in the areas of technology and more specifically: energy. Energy law should follow these changes which are occurring now and in the future. This dynamic field of work needs legal professionals with excellent knowledge, who are connected with society and have a forward- looking view. The four partner universities offer high standard complementary education taught by leading experts in the field of energy law.
