In 2022,the Energy Law,which had been waiting for 17 years,was finally reintroduced into the legislative plan,but the hope of formally introducing the Energy Law remains slim.The doom of the Energy Law lies not in the confusion or conflict with other energy policies,but in the lack of precise positioning of energy markets and energy regulation.The doom of the Energy Law lies not in the controversial technical and institutional design of the legislation,but in the slow progress of the marketization of the energy system and the liberation of the market from administrative monopoly.The doom of the Energy Law lies not in the lack of effort of the national.energy authorities,but in the fact that the legal boundaries of the energy market revolution and the energy regulation revolution have exceeded the margins of government power.Whether it is a basic or fundamental law,a strategic energy policy law or an energy management law,the Energy Law must address the specific design of the energy market and energy regulatory regime.However,how the Energy Law is designed,whether it is enacted,and when it is enacted are all subject to the choices of politicians.
