Energy Transition in Contractual Practice

Onyema, Emilia; Saxena, Adarsh

Abstract

In the context of the current global discussions on energy transition as part of the response for the move towards achieving net zero, this paper examines upstream activities which involve the extraction of transition mineral in the context of international investment contracts, and argues for a reengineering of the stabilisation, applicable law and dispute resolution clauses, to align with the global policy goals for achieving energy transition.
