Court of Justice (Second Chamber) 2 March 2017, C-4/16 (J. D. v Prezes Urzędu Regulacji Energetyki.)
Also known as
The Court's judgment addresses the interpretation of the term "energy from renewable sources" under Directive 2009/28/EC, specifically concerning energy produced by a small-scale hydropower plant situated at the discharge point of industrial wastewater from another facility. The Court concluded that such energy generation is included within the directive's scope, provided it does not involve pumped-storage methods solely created for electricity production. This ruling clarifies that hydropower derived from both natural and artificial flows, excluding pumped storage, qualifies as renewable energy under the directive.AI
