Enabling, flexible, and forward-looking regulation for a just and sustainable energy transition

Abstract

The transformation of the energy sector requires regulatory frameworks that not only keep pace with technological advances, but also anticipate socioeconomic, technological and environmental changes to promote and guide them. This article is based on contemporary theoretical frameworks, an assessment of international experiences, documentary review and a critical-constructive analysis aimed at identifying the requirements of regulation that is prepared to adapt to changing contexts while upholding its public value.
