Abstract:
This chapter relates to renewable energy disputes. ‘Renewable energies’ are understood in a broad sense as energy resources which are naturally replenished on a human timescale. The chapter focuses on wind and solar photovoltaics (solar PV) energy, describing typical project and contract structures, as well as challenges and disputes relating to their financing; development; construction; and operation, maintenance, and service. It pays special attention to questions relating to the individual contractual relationships between the project company, the project developer, the contractor(s), sub-contractors, and sub-suppliers. The chapter also contains a detailed, user-oriented analysis of the advantages and disadvantages relating to arbitrating commercial disputes in this sector.

Abstract:
The chapter adopts a novel approach for classifying different types of national political economies and studying their impact on renewable energy transitions. It analyses in an historical perspective the development of one mature renewable energy sector (onshore wind) and one infant renewable energy sector (offshore wind) across three major types of European economies. The chapter shows that the presence of strategic state–market coordination and the decentralized pluralist polity constitute key enabling factors that drive the development of new renewable energy technologies. The commonalities and differences in the political economy of the onshore and offshore wind sectors are also discussed.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses both local opposition and local support to renewable energy developments, with particular attention to wind farms and solar power plants. Actors, arguments, and actions are examined and contrasted. It is argued that opposition to renewables has received far more attention from social scientists, even though the success of this sector in several countries can show that support is frequent and widespread. Regarding opposition, the NIMBY hypothesis is discarded and other more complex and multilayered explanations are discussed, such as place attachment, landscape concerns, procedural and distributive justice, and actual impacts of wind and solar farms. Concerning support to renewable energy developments, justifications such as economic benefits (namely financial incentives and employment generation), landscape rehabilitation, and environmental values are explored.

Abstract:
This chapter analyzes the evolution of the energy sector in Brazil, charting shifts in the energy matrix, in particular the rise in renewables and increasing self-sufficiency in fossil fuels. Production of energy in Brazil, particularly electricity, includes a high percentage of renewable sources. Electricity is generated mostly by hydroelectric plants, cars are fueled with ethanol produced from sugarcane, biofuels have good prospects for success, and wind generation of electricity is picking up slowly. The country has managed to become almost self-sufficient in oil production. However, most of the production of energy is in the hands of government institutions, imposing a degree of instability on the system. This chapter has reviewed the effects of some important policies introduced at different points in time. Looking ahead, the chapter concludes that energy policy in Brazil is now moving in the right direction, although significant challenges remain.

Abstract:
The authors propose a general taxonomy of the political economy challenges to wind power development and integration, highlighting the implications in terms of actors, interests, and risks. Applying this framework to three functions in China’s electricity sector—planning and project approval, generator cost recovery, and balancing area coordination—the authors find evidence of challenges common across countries with significant wind investments, despite institutional and industry characteristics that are unique to China. The authors argue that resolving these political economy challenges is as important to facilitating the role of wind and other renewable energies in a low-carbon energy transition as providing dedicated technical and energy policy support. China is no exception.
