    Originally broadcast: Friday, July 21, 2023

    ESG #15: Treaties and international tribunals interpreting and applying those treaties can impact how governments behave and how companies invest, bringing about concrete effects in the real world. Today, international courts are being summoned to answer questions about responsibility and liability for climate change impacts under international law. In December 2022, the Commission of Small Island States on Climate Change and International Law asked the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea for an advisory opinion. In March 2023, the UN General Assembly asked the ICJ for an advisory opinion on state responsibilities to mitigate climate change. The decisions of these panels could have far-reaching effects, influencing climate change litigation in regional tribunals and national courts. They will shape and maybe accelerate global initiatives to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, to adapt to climate change, and to compensate for losses and damages.

    In this newest episode, Milbank partner Viren Mascarenhas speaks with host Allan Marks about what’s at stake in international climate change litigation. They discuss the potential impact of international climate change litigation decisions on economic policies and environmental laws, and explore the complex interrelationships among international courts, multilateral treaties and bilateral investment treaties.

  • FERC-alicious: US Energy Market Trends & Regulatory Update
    Apr 6 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    The United States Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) regulates US energy markets. FERC’s latest annual report on key market trends noted falling average prices for natural gas and electricity despite increased demand for both. New renewable energy and storage facilities are coming online at a brisk pace, making the grid cleaner and more efficient. FERC is about to get three new commissioners, who will face challenges of interregional transmission constraints and grid-integration of emerging technologies.

    In this new episode, “FERC-alicious: US Energy Market Trends & Regulatory Update,” host Allan Marks speaks with Milbank partner Jenna McGrath. They examine how recent FERC actions are impacting markets. They discuss trends in state and federal energy regulation, the expansion of energy storage to bolster grid stability and reliability, and strategies for alleviating transmission and interconnection bottlenecks for new renewable energy projects. They also assess the three new nominees for FERC Commissioner – Judy W. Chang, David Rosner and Lindsay See – and upcoming FERC actions and rulemaking.
