Praise for Powering the Future: A Lawyer's Guide to Clean Energy
"Energy use touches just about every aspect of our lives and livelihoods, while energy development and delivery reach into almost every corner of the law. Whether it is state, federal or local; whether it is economic regulation, land use, trade policy or environmental protection; our laws define and reflect broader policy ambitions. Increasingly, governments at all levels are striving to accelerate the adoption of clean, carbon-free energy options. Through several recent pieces of legislation, the U.S. Congress has been leading the charge. In that context, it is critically important to step back and look comprehensively at the current energy-related legal and policy landscape. In his usual clear and concise way, Steve Ferrey offers a solid foundation enabling practitioners, stakeholders and students to navigate effectively in this new and accelerating world of energy development."
- Steve Weissman, Lecturer at the UC Berkeley Goldman School of Public Policy, Founder and former Director of the Energy Program at Berkeley Law
"Steve Ferrey provides a concise 'roadmap' scrutinizing what remains, what is new, what is court-vetted or still to be tested, and what now is legally superseded or preempted for energy, land-use, climate, and environmental law. In sixteen stand-alone chapters, this book analyzes how new laws integrate with existing laws, what states have what particular incentives and clean resources, and how federal, state, and local laws conflict. For any state or federal law that suffers from a gap or deficiency, he provides strategic 'workarounds' to help attorneys and energy professionals transcend each barrier confronted. This book will remain a legal and policy users' manual regardless of political changes."
- Mindy Lubber, CEO & President of CERES, Former Regional Administrator, U.S. EPA
