Avtor proučuje pravno naravo in vsebino načela trajnostnega razvoja v panogi energetike, kot je urejena v slovenskem pravnem redu, s poudarkom na ureditvi v Energetskem zakonu (EZ-1). V Republiki Sloveniji je pojem trajnostnega razvoja v zakonodaji pomensko odprt, zaradi česar je njegova vsebina opredeljena zlasti z nezavezujočimi mednarodnimi dokumenti. Gre za meta- -načelo, iz katerega izvirajo številna temeljna načela prava energetike in ki je izraženo na več podpodročjih, ki jih zakonodaja s področja energetike ureja, med drugim na področju obnovljivih virov energije, energetske učinkovitosti in biogoriv. Trenutna ureditev je kljub nedoločenosti pojma trajnostnega razvoja v osnovi ustrezna in primerljiva z ureditvami v drugih državah članicah Evropske unije. Zakonodajalcu sicer lahko očitamo nekatere manjše nedoslednosti, zlasti glede vpeljave načela stroškovne učinkovitosti.

The author researches the legal nature and content of the sustainable development principle in the energy sector as it is regulated in the Slovenian legal order, with emphasis on the regulation in Energy Act (EZ-1). The notion of sustainable development in the Republic of Slovenia is semantically open which causes its content to be defined especially by nonbinding international documents. It is a meta-principle from which numerous basic principles of energy law stem and which is expressed in several subfields that are regulated by the legislation in the energy sector, among other renewables, energy efficiency and biofuels. The present arrangement is, indeterminacy of the notion of sustainable development notwithstanding, generally appropriate and comparable to regulations in other European Union member states. It is however possible to blame the legislator for certain minor inconsistencies, especially regarding the introduction of the cost efficiency principle.
