Abstract
The global transition to net-zero energy systems demands unprecedented integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain technologies into legal frameworks governing carbon capture, critical minerals, and ESG-linked decarbonisation. This thesis confronts the fragmented legal landscape arising from these technologies, which exacerbates conflicts between transnational arbitration, state sovereignty, and energy justice. By synthesising computational legal studies, adaptive governance theory, and postcolonial energy justice frameworks, this research pioneers a Dynamic Legal Harmonization Model (DLHM).
The DLHM leverages machine learning (ML) to analyse 500+ ICSID arbitration cases and blockchain prototypes for carbon credit traceability and mineral provenance. Case studies in Norway’s CCUS projects and Chile’s lithium supply chains demonstrate how AI-blockchain systems can resolve disputes, enhance regulatory compliance, and embed equity into net-zero transitions. The thesis concludes with policy blueprints for UNCITRAL, the EU, and Global South nations, positioning law as both a governance tool and a driver of ethical innovation.
  1. Introduction
1.1 The Net-Zero Imperative and Technological Disruption
The Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C target requires decarbonising energy systems at a pace and scale unmatched in human history. While AI and blockchain promise efficiency gains—from optimising carbon capture to ensuring ethical mineral sourcing—their deployment has outpaced legal frameworks. This disconnect creates a techno-legal trilemma:
1. Transnational Arbitration: Conflicting liability regimes for AI-driven CCUS failures.
2. Sovereignty: Blockchain’s borderless architecture challenges national control over mineral resources.
3. Energy Justice: Algorithmic bias in renewable energy allocation exacerbates Global North-South inequities.
1.2 Research Gap
Existing scholarship siloes AI governance, blockchain regulation, and energy law. No study holistically addresses their convergence in net-zero systems or proposes conflict-resolution mechanisms balancing commercial, sovereign, and justice imperatives.
1.3 Thesis Contribution
This research:
  • Develops the first Dynamic Legal Harmonisation Model (DLHM) for AI-blockchain in energy. • Empirically validates ML and DLT tools through CCUS and critical mineral case studies.
  • Proposes actionable reforms for UNCITRAL, EU CBAM, and UNFCCC.
