The Investment Treaty Arbitration Review

Christopher Goncalves and Alayna Tria evaluate the importance of causation in investment arbitration for the natural gas and power sectors, and the critical role industry and quantum experts play in causation analysis. They review the critical steps of causation analysis; assess recent examples from climate change-related investment arbitrations; and discuss the increased importance of expert causation analysis as a result of investment arbitrations wrought of climate change policy and the energy transition.
