American And Canadian Responses To The Challenge Of Small Power Production, J O. Krowina Oct 1992

American And Canadian Responses To The Challenge Of Small Power Production, J O. Krowina

Dalhousie Law Journal

Small power producers' are in the vanguard of the movement towards the increased use of "alternative" modes of generating electricity. Wind, water, solar, biomass, and cogeneration (which creates useful heat and electricity in one process) power sources promise increased efficiency, reduced environmental impacts and increased energy self-sufficiency. This paper undertakes to examine the interactions between small power producers and the established utility sector in North America. In particular, it examines the economic and institutional barriers faced by small producers attempting to gain access to utility-controlled electricity markets.


Self-Determination For Indigenous Peoples At The Dawn Of The Solar Age, Dean B. Suagee Jun 1992

Self-Determination For Indigenous Peoples At The Dawn Of The Solar Age, Dean B. Suagee

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

In addition to challenging readers to help make the principle of self-determination a reality for indigenous peoples, this Article challenges indigenous leaders, especially those in the United States, to help formulate our collective vision of a sustainable future and to provide leadership in making that vision a reality. The United Nations has designated 1993 the International Year for the World's Indigenous Peoples, and this event will provide tribal leaders with opportunities to have their voices heard. Tribal leaders in the United States should take full advantage of these opportunities and step to the forefront of the movement to hasten the …

Least Cost Electricity For Texas, Karl R. Rábago Jan 1992

Least Cost Electricity For Texas, Karl R. Rábago

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

The effects of consuming fossil fuels have disproportionately elevated human importance by the collective impact made on the world environment. Even the most buoyant optimist can be depressed by adding the global climactic changes of the greenhouse effect to a list that already includes air pollution, water pollution, soil contamination, health effects, balance of trade deficits, declining technological competitiveness, and vanishing natural resources. In Texas the primary source of electricity, and a major source of environmental problems, is the combustion of fossil fuels. This article introduces the reader to some of the environmental, economic, and regulatory challenges involved in responding …

What Comes Out Must Go In: Cooling Water Intakes And The Clean Water Act, Karl R. Rábago

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

Principles Of Energy Policy, John S. Lowe Jan 1992

Principles Of Energy Policy, John S. Lowe

Faculty Journal Articles and Book Chapters

Energy policy has been at the center of American political rhetoric since the early 1970s. Twenty years, five presidents and ten Congresses later, however, the United States still has no coherent energy policy. Why has development of a coherent energy policy proved so difficult for the United States, when other democratic nations have been able to move so much faster?

The author suggests that the root of the problem has been an attitude, an expectation of plenty. When colonists first came to what is now the United States, they found a new world with what seemed to them infinite amounts …
