Eurelectric


Eurelectric is the sector association which represents the common interests of the electricity industry at a European level, plus its affiliates and associates on several other continents. eurelectric covers all major issues affecting the sector, from generation and markets to distribution networks and customer issues. eurelectric was formally established in 1989.

Eurelectric hosts an Annual Convention and Conference at which energy policy is debated.
