My impression is this is a technique of the 2nd tier energy companies (e.g. https://www.isds.bilaterals.org/vattenfall-vs-germany-i-coal...).

Companies like BP, Total, etc operate more like nation-states and have other tools available.

I'd still call them "Big Energy" however.

which makes sense. second tier companies are less likely to survive, so they have to fight harder
