Directive (EU) 2019/944 on Common Rules for the Internal Market and Electricity puts the consumer at the heart of the clean energy transition, enabling active participation, with a strong framework for consumer protection.
It empowers consumers and communities to actively participate in the electricity market and play a full role in demand response to the benefit of the environment! The Directive aims to create a truly integrated competitive, consumer-centred, flexible, fair, and transparent electricity market in the European Union. It establishes common rules for the generation, transmission, distribution, energy storage, and supply of electricity, together with consumer protection provisions.
We could not be more excited to share that we will be leading the new project for the European Commission (DG ENER): “Assistance with the verification of compliance of national legislative measures implementing Directive (EU) 2019/944 On Common Rules for the internal market and electricity and amending Directive 2012/27/EU (RECAST)”. We will assist the European Commission in verifying the completeness and conformity of national transposition and implementing measures with the respective provisions of the Directive. This will involve in-depth legal analysis and data collection of the current measures of the 27 Member States.
We are proud to contribute to the EU’s ambitious energy efficiency targets for 2030!
