Abstract Options and possibilities for lesbian parents have changed fundamentally since the turn of the millennium. A legal change in 2003 enabled a same-sex couple to share legal parenthood of the same child. An additional legal change, in 2005, gave lesbian couples access to fertility treatment within public healthcare in Sweden.

  • Status Review on Implementation of TSO and DSO Unbundling Provisions

It also briefly summarises the main changes and novelties with regard to unbundling-related provisions that were made in the recasts of the Electricity Directive and Electricity Regulation within the framework of “Clean Energy for All Europeans” package (CEP). Under the 3rd Energy Package, energy networks are subject to unbundling requirements which oblige Member States to ensure the separation of vertically integrated energy companies, resulting in the separation of the various stages of energy supply (generation, transmission, distribution, and retail). This Status Review aims to assess the status of DSO and TSO unbundling, highlighting the new developments since 2015 and to provide an overview of the main changes in unbundling-related provisions introduced in CEP. Topics explored included related issues such as: cases and reasons for reopening certification decisions; branding; financial independence in terms of staff and resources; compliance programmes and officers; investments, joint-venture TSOs and joint undertakings. Target Audience European Commission, energy suppliers, traders, gas/electricity customers, gas/electricity industry, consumer representative groups, network operators, Member States, academics and other interested parties.

  • Global Energy Regulation
    Issue 215 Reporting on energy regulation issues around the world April 2017 Global Energy Regulation Contents EUROPEAN NEWS 1 Europe European Union 11 North America 15 Central & South America The Council And The European Parliament Reach Agreement 16 Asia Pacific On The Revised Security Of Gas Supply Regulation 19 Middle East The Council of the European Union and the European Parliament reached a provisional agreement on a revised draft regulation on security of gas supply. The new rules are intended to improve cooperation among Member States and to ensure a regionally coordinated and common approach to security of supply, with the aim of minimising the impact of any potential disruption to the gas system. Key elements of the regulation are: (1) enhancing regional cooperation and coordination around groups of Member States facing common risks; (2) mandating regional preventive action plans and emergency plans, as well as regional risk assessments; (3) establishing a solidarity mechanism; (4) increasing the monitoring of gas supply contract terms; and (5) defining specific obligations of EU Member States towards the Energy Community. Once the agreement is confirmed by the Permanent Representatives of Member States, the text will have to be formally approved by the European Parliament and the Council of the EU and then will enter into force after being published in the Official Journal of the European Union.

JANUARY 2015 THESSALONIKI – GREECE ABSTRACT This dissertation was written as part of the LLM In Transnational And European Commercial Law And Alternative Dispute Resolution at the International Hellenic University. The goal of my dissertation is to develop the scope and operation of the unbundling in electricity sector and in particular on the TSO’s point of view. The European Commission and the Parliament struggle reach the goals of “Europe 2020 Strategy” through a secure and competitive environment. The correct transposition of the European electricity legislation in all Member States is not yet complete. Hence, the Third Internal Energy Market Package was adopted in 2009 to accelerate investments in energy infrastructure, enhance cross border trade and access to diversified sources of energy. Market concentration isn’t yet fully repealed in the European Union, nevertheless we have high hopes that the three options EU has introduced (ownership unbundling, independent system operator (ISO) and independent transmission operators (ITO)) to weaken the market power of the biggest electricity firms, will work out.

Chapter 2 The Integrated Nordic Power Market and the Deployment of Renewable Energy Technologies: Key Lessons and Potential Implications for the Future ASEAN Integrated Power Market 1 LUIS MUNDACA T. CARL DALHAMMAR DAVID HARNESK Energy and Environmental Economics (E-3) International Consulting Services The report examines the integrated Nordic power market and its linkages to renewable energy technology (RET) deployment for power production. It has two purposes. First, it aims to improve the understanding of the expansion of the Nordic power market and integration and deployment of RET. Secondly, it takes lessons from the Nordic experience that could inform the development, deployment and integration of RET in the future ASEAN integrated power market. Whenever possible, historical or co-evolution aspects are addressed. The study analysed three central building blocks underpinning the development of the Nordic market: i) the Nordic power system and its links to the European (EU) power markets ii) significant policy and regulatory characteristics that have driven both market power integration and RET deployment and iii) the complexities and technicalities of the Nordic power market exchange (the Nord Pool Spot).
