In the pursuit of its energy policy objectives, the EU has endeavoured to extend the application of internal energy law to non-EU countries. Until now the application of EU law has. in this context, focused on specific provisions of private law, but the latest proposals from the Commission have the intention to give EU energy law wider extraterritorial effect. The objective of this Article is to examine the risks that would entail from international law, if EU energy law is extended extraterritorially to non-EU countries.
