1 / STRENGHTENING THE LEGAL FRAMEWORK OF TRADE, INVESTMENT AND TRANSIT IN THE ENERGY SECTOR IN THE ASIA- PACIFIC REGION" On the Significance of the Investment Chapter of the Energy Charter Treaty Akira KOTERA Professor of International Law University of Tokyo 1
2 Why shall we discuss the Investment Chapter? The Investment Part: One of Three Pillars of the ECT Effectiveness of the Investment Clauses Investor vs. Host State Arbitration 2
3 What is the IIA? Three Elements of Investment Chapter (1) Investment Protection ( 投資保護 ) e.g. Appropriate Compensation against Expropriation (2) Treatment of Local Subsidies and Branches of Investors ( 待遇 ) e.g. National Treatment of post investment phase (3) Liberalization ( 自由化 ) (4) Dispute Settlement: State vs. State, Investor vs. State Awards (Decisions) are Binding. The ECT contains three Elements and (1) and (2) are important for Investors 3
4 Effects of Arbitration Awards Awards (Decisions) are Binding under International Law, and Enforceable under Domestic Laws just as Awards of International Commercial Arbitrations. The Proportion of Voluntary Compliance is very high. One Condition for Loans by the World Bank is Compliance of IIAs Awards. 4
5 The Number of Arbitration Cases ICSID NonICSID All cases 5
6 Increase of Number of IIAs 6
7 Nature of the ECT s Investment Chapter Only One of Universal Multilateral IIAs (47 members and One International Org.) Other IIAs are Bilateral or Regional. Japan is Party to 21 IIAs (only signed 2 IIAs). ECT is Very Valuable for Japan. The Investment Chapter of the ECT only Covers Energy Field. How shall we Assess such Coverage? 7
8 When can the IIAs Exercise their Power? In General: The Moment when the Host State does not Comply with the Obligations arising from IIA (Very complicated interpretations are required.) Towards Developed States: Few Problems Towards Developing States:(1)As an Exit of Investment (2)Large Amount of Investment- Very Effective as an exit of Energy sectors as well as Infrastructure sectors The ECT is More Important to Investors than might be considered at first Sight. 8
9 Cases concerning ETC s Investment Chapter 1. AES Summit Generation Ltd. (UK subsidiary of US-based AES Corporation) v. Hungary 2. Nykomb Synergetics Technology Holding AB (Sweden) v. Latvia 3. Plama Consortium Ltd. (Cyprus) v. Bulgaria 4. Petrobart Ltd. (Gibraltar) v. Kyrgyzstan 5. Alstom Power Italia SpA, Alstom SpA (Italy) v. Mongolia 6. Yukos Universal Ltd. (UK Isle of Man) v. Russian Federation 7. Hulley Enterprises Ltd. (Cyprus) v. Russian Federation 8. Veteran Petroleum Trust (Cyprus) v. Russian Federation 9. Ioannis Kardassopoulos (Greece) v. Georgia 10. Amto (Latvia) v. Ukraine 11.Hrvatska Elektropriveda d.d. (HEP) (Croatia) v. Republic of Slovenia 12.Libananco Holdings Co. Limited (Cyprus) v. Republic of Turkey 13.Azpetrol International Holdings B.V., Azpetrol Group B.V. and Azpetrol Oil Services Group B.V. (the Netherlands) v. Azerbaijan 14.Cementownia "Nowa Huta" S.A. (Poland) v. Republic of Turkey 15.Europe Cement Investment and Trade S.A. (Poland) v. Republic of Turkey 16.Liman Caspian Oil B.V. (the Netherlands) and NCL Dutch Investment B.V. (the Netherlands) v. Republic of Kazakhstan 17.Electrabel S.A. v. Republic of Hungary 18.AES Summit Generation Limited and AES-Tisza Erőmű Kft. v. Republic of Hungary 19.Mercuria Energy Group Ltd. v. Republic of Poland 20.Alapli Elektrik B.V. v. Republic of Turkey 9
10 Conclusion The Investment Chapter of the ECT should be an Important Moment Before and After the Investment in the Energy Sector. Before Investment: Risk Hedge Function (No Premium) After Investment: Dispute Resolution Mechanism, including in the Negotiation Phase 10
11 Supplement: on Host State Side To Produce (1) Incentive to Invite Foreign Investments by Improving Investment Climate (2)Good Governance of Host States E.g. Increase of Transparency 11
