6 How Europe Regulates the Internal Energy Market
-
Walter Boltz
Abstract
In the context of the European Union (EU) treaty (Lisbon Treaty), energy remains a mostly national competency. To establish the rules for a well working EU-wide electricity and gas market, the EU law established detailed technical obligations for network operators and for independent National Regulatory Authorities (NRAs). In addition, to ensure that regulatory decisions are coordinated, a special agency, ACER (Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators), was established. After a slow start, ACER has asserted itself and made several far-reaching decisions. This article reviews the legal framework of ACER and the role of the institutions within ACER as well as some cases that were referred to the European Court of Justice.
