Devising a legal blueprint for corporate energy transition

该项目旨在为利用公司法机制激励澳大利亚公司改进气候风险管理和清洁能源实践提供法律蓝图。企业是推动全球能源系统向清洁能源转型和减轻气候风险的关键力量。虽然这一角色得到了广泛认可，但关于促进企业能源转型的最佳法律策略的思考仍处于起步阶段。根据经验数据和美国在利用公司法工具实现气候目标方面更广泛的经验，该项目计划揭示企业能源转型的障碍，并确定将私营部门推向低碳道路所需的法律和治理改革。

This project aims to provide a legal blueprint for using corporate law mechanisms to incentivise improved climate risk management and clean energy practices in Australian companies. Corporations are key players in efforts to transition the global energy system to clean energy sources and to mitigate climate risk. While this role is widely acknowledged, thinking on the best legal strategies that could foster corporate energy transition is in its infancy. Drawing on empirical data and more extensive United States experience with the use of corporate law tools for climate ends, the project plans to uncover roadblocks to corporate energy transformation, and identify law and governance reforms necessary for putting the private sector on a low-carbon pathway.
