Doctrine of force majeure in the development of the electric system

Abstract

This article reviews the conflicts arising from delays in the development of the electrical system, and particularly the argument of force majeure. It exposes the criteria used by the Ministry of Energy to classify force majeure and highlights how this Ministry has sought to free itself from abstract legal categories by opting for a concrete conceptualization of the clauses invoked. This position is evaluated positively, and a call is made to search for justice on the concrete application of the law rather than on abstract categories. However, the work highlights that this approach demands a different legal education.
