The Controversial Case of Hinkley Point C: A Straw on the Back of a Sustainable Energy Union?

by Anita Ho-Tieng, Dr. Yamina Saheb and Dr. Heinz Ossenbrink.

Abstract

[Added January 2020] This paper examines whether the Governance Regulation of the Energy Union, in its current form, provides a governance framework that will enable sustainable policy making and will improve decision-making when designing future major energy infrastructure projects to make Europe carbon neutral. The authors first introduce the readers to Europe’s Energy Union, then identify in the literature what makes a governance model sustainable. The Governance Regulation, the new innovative instrument introduced under the Energy Union strategy framework, is then assessed in terms of delivering a sustainable Energy Union. Finally, the paper introduces the British Hinkley Point C nuclear power plant project to illustrate the features of an ineffective energy governance, the excessive market-based approach to energy infrastructure planning (UK) along with the conflicting stance on nuclear energy (EU), as brought out by the General Court’s decision in Austria v Commission. The aim of the analysis is to assess the contribution of the Governance Regulation to building a sustainable governance model and to more sensible decision-making on energy infrastructure projects when handling the energy trilemma, whilst retaining valuable lessons from the UK who exerted substantial influence on EU energy policy.
