Abstract

In the current development of international law, the promotion of energy produced from renewable sources of energy has gained tremendous growth. In this regard, several international instruments have been adopted in order to direct national environmental and energy policies of states involved. These directives have been introduced by a wide range of instruments, including binding conventions and soft law. Hence the scattered international environmental law setting, and unclear status of the relevant rules and principles of international law justify the necessity of studying the recent situation of renewable sources of energy under international law. Due to the considerable importance of the development of renewable energy as a global issue, this paper aims to examine the relevant rules and principles of international law in this context.
