Colleagues Robert A. James and Stella Pulman have co-authored the United State chapter of Global Legal Group’s Energy 2020 in which they provide an overview of the current U.S. energy marketplace.

In the chapter, Rob and Stella discuss the progress as well as the clashes on policies and projects in a wide variety of arenas, including:

  • Incentives and challenges for renewables, including U.S. offshore wind and expanded power storage;
  • Divergent views on natural gas and battles over new oil and gas pipelines;
  • The vehicle efficiency duel between California and the federal government;
  • Endangered Species Act, environmental regulatory and climate change litigation developments; and
  • Wildfire liability, cybersecurity and blockchain issues for electric utilities and the national grid.
