Vienna Forum on European Energy Law Webinar: Solidarity and Energy Law and Policy – a closer look at the AG ‘s Opinion on the OPAL case

The Vienna Forum on European Energy Law is an annual joint initiative of the FSR Energy Union Law Area and the Energy Community Secretariat which aims to bridge the gap in energy debate between the EU and Energy Community.

The webinar will focus on Solidarity and Energy Law and Policy – a closer look at the AG ‘s Opinon on the OPAL case.

Solidarity in the European Union’s energy policy - not just a political guideline but a justiciable principle of EU primary law? This is the position of the CJEU’s Advocate General who delivered his recent Opinion in Case C-848/19 P Germany v Poland. He advises the Court of Justice to uphold the General Court’s earlier ruling in Case T-883/16 Poland v Commission. Although the CJEU may not necessarily follow his advice, this Opinion already raises a number of interesting opportunities for discussion.

To discuss these topics, we will bring together a panel of experts for a roundtable debate and a live Q&A session with our audience.
