Power Play: The President's Role In Shaping Renewable Energy Regulation And Policy, Luke Bartol
Power Play: The President's Role In Shaping Renewable Energy Regulation And Policy, Luke Bartol
Honors Projects
With the impacts of climate change becoming more and more apparent every day, finding means of effective action to mitigate its effects become increasingly critical. While localized work can play an important role, federal action is necessary to have the most widespread and effective impact, especially on interconnected issues such as clean energy. Congressional action is the avenue of change at this level, however in an increasingly partisan and divided environment, progress on this front is far short of what is needed.
Looking to the president is logical here, both as a single actor more insulated from partisan fights, but …

Public Land & Resources Law Review
The D.C. Circuit Court remanded three Brownsville, TX LNG approval orders to FERC for failing to adequately explain conclusions around environmental justice and climate concerns. The Court ordered FERC to reevaluate whether the projects are in the public interest. The LNG terminals and pipeline will disproportionately impact low-income, minority communities, and substantial greenhouse gas emissions from production and export will contribute to anthropogenic climate change. This case note explores the role that environmental justice and climate change play in federal agency decision-making processes, analyzes the legal framework for the Court's decision, and discusses how the outcome of this litigation could …
Dual Environmentalism: Demand Response Mechanisms In Wholesale And Retail Energy Markets, Sarah M. Main
Dual Environmentalism: Demand Response Mechanisms In Wholesale And Retail Energy Markets, Sarah M. Main
Pace Environmental Law Review
This note argues that a dual jurisdictional approach to demand response programming is better suited to mitigate environmental harms than an “either-or” regulatory model. Through an exploration of FERC’s authority over wholesale demand response, state authority over retail-level demand response, and implications for electricity and capacity markets arising out of the Court’s decision in FERC v. EPSA, this note will offer effective legal mechanisms for mitigating environmental costs, while fostering environmental benefits. The next section of this note analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of state and federal regulatory approaches to demand response in isolation.
Based on this assessment, this note …

Ferc Anti-Manipulation Enforcement And The Barclays Proceeding: What Factors Should Regulated Entities Consider Before Deciding To Follow Barclays' Path To Federal Court?, Matthew Hale
Washington and Lee Journal of Energy, Climate, and the Environment
Energy regulation is not a new topic, but after the Enron scandal, Congress made significant changes. The changes were embodied in the Energy Policy Act of 2005. One major change was to FERC's ability to hand down penalties for market manipulation. Recently, FERC has been aggressively enforcing its power and anticipates anti-manipulation enforcement will be a point of emphasis in the future. The first entity to challenge FERC's power in federal court is Barclays. The Barclays case, other recent enforcement actions, and the regulations FERC has promulgated provide a guide to regulated entities about how and when they should challenge …

Relieving The Congestion: The Eastern Interconnection Planning Collaborative, Michelle C. Bailey
Relieving The Congestion: The Eastern Interconnection Planning Collaborative, Michelle C. Bailey
Michelle C Bailey
Abstract for: RELIEVING THE CONGESTION: THE EASTERN INTERCONNECTION PLANNING COLLABORATIVE By: Michelle Bailey April, 2013 Congestion within the electric transmission grid, coupled with an absence of transmission, present the most significant barriers to integration of renewable energy sources and advancement of the electric grid towards a more reliable, responsive and efficient energy future. Responding to the critical need for new transmission, however, is a complex, protracted, and difficult process. The key barriers to transmission development are transmission siting and permitting, and cost allocation of transmission projects. Both of these hurdles are exacerbated by the fact that transmission project siting and …
