Global rules on foreign direct investment (FDI)
Cross-border acquisitions and investments increasingly trigger foreign direct investment (FDI) screening requirements.
Global | Publication | November, 2018
Norton Rose Fulbright Australia's energy team have launched the Guide to Corporate Power Purchase Agreements: Helping energy buyers to make the most of the growing renewable energy opportunity - prepared in collaboration with Energetics Australia in partnership with WWF’s Renewable Energy Buyers Forum.
As Australia transitions to clean energy generation, new opportunities are opening up for corporates. Many are exploring how they can access lower electricity prices and achieve greater price certainty through corporate renewable Power Purchase Agreements. But how do corporates – and their key decision-makers – navigate a deal against a backdrop of shifting market conditions and corporate drivers?
Aimed at executives and building on recently released tools, this new guide will equip corporates to understand the key risks, potential price impacts and the strategies that can be employed to maximise the value of a PPA.
While the guide has been written with the NSW market in mind, the insights will apply across all states and for all large energy users.

On February 2, 2024, the Belgian Presidency of the Council of the European Union confirmed that the Committee of Permanent Representatives had signed the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Regulation, referred to as the AI Act. Approval by the EU Parliament followed on 13 March 2024, and the AI Act is likely to appear in the EU’s Official Journal around May 2024. The AI Act aims to establish a stringent legal framework governing the development, marketing, and utilisation of artificial intelligence within the region, thereby marking a significant advancement in the regulation of this burgeoning domain.

The EU’s Artificial Intelligence Regulation, commonly referred to as the AI Act, is expected to come into force during the summer of 2024 (the AI Act). The AI Act will be the first comprehensive legal framework for the use and development of artificial intelligence (AI), and is intended to ensure that AI systems developed and used in the EU are safe, transparent, traceable, non-discriminatory and environmentally friendly.
