MEDREG-REGULATORS
Our work is to reinforce the electricity and gas markets, infrastructure and trade. We advocate for strong regulators that can protect consumers and contribute to the energy transition in the Mediterranean.

Mission

The INS Working group aims to enhance coordination and cooperation among MEDREG members through the sharing of energy regulators’ competences and knowledge.

To do so, it periodically organises tailor-made activities such as training, workshop and study visits, which are often designed in collaboration with other groups. It also provides peer reviews to members who are willing to comply more closely with the Good Regulatory Principle defined by MEDREG.
Moreover, it is also responsible for holding the dialogue on energy regulation with the European Commission, international institutions and regional organisations.



Initiatives for 2025
  • Report on “Guidelines of Good Practice on to the Dynamic Regulation”. The Guidelines will portray good practices and present several case studies to describe the development and implementation process of dynamic regulation and its benefits on the improvement of the regulatory framework in the energy sector.
  • Workshop on the “Guidelines of Good Practices on the Dynamic Regulation”.
  • Workshop on "Evaluation of Previous NEEAPs and the Development of New Ones" for LCEC.

  • Supporting other WGs along the process of improvement of the national legal and regulatory frameworks of Mediterranean countries, taking national specificities into account in order to facilitate the deepening of regional cooperation and energy exchanges
Main Activities
