In so doing, a qualitative, normative, and doctrinal approach will be employed to elaborate, dissect, and analyse the issues. In producing the analysis of the issue, this article assembles primary sources (original legal texts) and secondary sources (cases, books, commentaries, preparatory work, newspaper articles, online sources) to meaningfully find the object and purpose of the ECT and its interpretation and implementation. The finding shows that the object and purpose is to enhance energy co-operation through protection of investment and safeguard towards the environment. Thus, the sunset clause reduction plan is compatible with the ECT’s object and purpose.</p>2024-09-01T00:00:00+07:00Copyright (c) 2024 Juris Gentium Law Review
