This edited collection, with a foreword and contributions from leading arbitrators and scholars including Kaj Hobér, Volker Roeben and Ylli Dautaj, examines how investment protection, environmental policy and investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) must work together to promote and safeguard renewable energy investment while advancing sustainability goals. It maps the legal and regulatory architecture of the energy transition, from treaty drafting and interpretation to the reform debates reshaping ISDS itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnalyses how investment treaties are being planned, drafted and interpreted specifically for energy transition disputes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReviews the \"modernised\" Energy Charter Treaty and its role as a bridge to future energy governance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSurveys real case studies of energy transition arbitrations and the evolving jurisprudence around them\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCoverage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThirteen chapters trace the intersection of climate law, energy law and investment arbitration: the international legal and regulatory framework of climate change, the economics of the energy transition, climate litigation and human rights, the international energy architecture, treaty drafting and interpretation, critiques of ISDS and the arbitration community's response, reform proposals for aligning investment law with climate goals, ISDS procedural reform for energy transition disputes, the modernised Energy Charter Treaty, case studies of energy transition arbitrations, and the role of investment treaty arbitration in the global governance of energy investment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Editors\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKaj Hobér is one of the world's most experienced investment treaty arbitrators, with a career spanning decades of energy and investment disputes.
