Purpose and objectives

The purpose and objectives of the association are:
The first energy regulatory bodies of the ERRA region were established in the mid-1990s as an essential part of restructuring and reforms taking place in these countries. ERRA began as a cooperative initiative of 12 energy regulatory bodies. They were then supported from 1999 to 2008 by the US National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners, which, with the participation of USAID, arranged technical forums, meetings and study tours for mutual training and development. As a consequence, fifteen energy regulators established ERRA on 11 December 2000 in Bucharest. The association was registered in Hungary in April 2001 and its secretariat is based in Budapest. To date ERRA lists 23 full and 14 associate members.
