Over the past two decades, the energy sector has been shaped by transformative legal decisions and practices that have redefined how industries, governments, and communities address energy production, distribution, and consumption. In honor of Texas Journal of Oil, Gas, & Energy Law’s 20th anniversary, this panel of TJOGEL founders and leading alumni delves into the most significant trends, developments, and case law that have defined energy over the last twenty years, analyzing their far-reaching impacts on the industry and its stakeholders.
