9 Renewable Energy L. & Pol'y Rev. 5 (2018-2020)

handle is hein.journals/relp9 and id is 1 raw text is: This new issue of the Renewable Energy Law and Policy Review - RELP kicks off a refreshed coopera- tion with an editorial board, reflecting the experi- ence of many years of RELP work and colleagues who now joined the board of editors. I am curious to have taken on the role and res- ponsibility of the executive editor and to deepen the cooperation and work with Claeys & Casteels.
