The energy protocol of the Alpine ConventionCIPRA Austria –
Series for the Alpine Convention, Volume 1
The energy protocol of the Alpine Convention came into force in
2002. In view of rising energy demand
on the one hand and the ecological vulnerability of the Alpine
area on the other, it tries to reconcile
economic interests with ecological requirements. Six articles
review the contents of the energy protocol
and present different forms of its application. The volume also
includes the energy protocol in all official
contract languages as bonus material.

25 Years Alpine Convention – Insights and OutlooksA quarter of a
century has passed since the signing of the Framework Convention in
Salzburg. After 25
years of the Alpine Convention, a time when new avenues in
Alpine policy are possible, it is important to
take a critical look at the past, but also to look to the
future: Is the international agreement of the Alpine
Convention a recognizable and visible influence on comprehensive
Alpine protection and on sustain-
able Alpine development? With the book 25 Years Alpine
Convention – Insights and Outlooks, CIPRA
Austria traces the needs of the countries and has gathered the
verdict of international and national po-
litical representatives, as well as numerous witnesses, guides
and supporters of the Alpine Convention.
