Collapse ▲Energy Law covers laws concerning promotion, regulation and safety, and advancements in the exploration, acquisition, development, production, marketing and distribution of energy from renewable and conventional sources in North Carolina and beyond. Because Energy Law is closely linked Climate Change Policy, this page will discuss the topic in that context. Energy Law addresses two broad categories of discussion:
- The legal principles concerning the exploration for, access to, and the production of energy. This category includes the production of natural gas through hydraulic fracturing of fossil deposits and from biological waste, e.g., poultry litter, and production of electricity from renewable sources that include the sun, wind, and moving water.
- The manner in which our legal system regulates the provision and distribution of the energy needed for agricultural and forestry operations. This includes the provision of adequate supplies of fuel for transportation, drying, and processing of farm and forest products, as well as the production of inputs such as fertilizer.
