Energy and Critical Infrastructure Governance is a chapter of Governance Nexus: a specialist sub-community with its own group, editor and research agenda. Its work starts from the cornerstone topic, infrastructure governance. Infrastructure governance is the set of arrangements, from ministries and regulators to concession contracts and boards, that decide whether energy, water, transport and communications services stay safe, resilient, affordable and accountable over asset lives that outlast governments. A chapter becomes a platform of its own only by meeting the graduation rule.
