The first part of this book will be an analysis of how water is used in electricity production. It is important to point out that all types of energy sources use water, to a different extent, of course, and that its spatial and temporal availability is very important. The focus will be on hydropower, presenting the current situation at the global level, and the effect of reducing the amounts of water in the river system. The second part is based on the presentation of the concept of force majeure and the ways of presenting and drafting it in a contract. Many disputes or the success of a contract depended heavily on the provisions of this article of the contract. Obviously, there are also situations in which the signatory parties abuse or are not protected by these provisions of force majeure. Starting from a few brief examples from the international level, we reach a wide discussion of the situation created in Romania, when the largest supplier of electricity produced on the basis of water terminates several contracts invoking force majeure. The manner in which the opinion of the parties involved is presented to the court is analyzed and presented in detail. 606 $aElectric power production$xLaw and legislation 606 $aVis major (Civil law) 606 $aWater-power$xLaw and legislation 615 0$aElectric power production$xLaw and legislation. 615 0$aVis major (Civil law) 615 0$aWater-power$xLaw and legislation. 676 $a343.0929 700 $aDiaconu$b Daniel Constantin$01254655 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910683358403321 996 $aForce Majeure in the Hydropower Industry$93087089 997 $aUNINA
