New rules for the EU internal electricity market

The European Parliament is expected to vote on four legislative proposals related to the EU electricity market during the March II plenary session: a regulation and a directive on the internal electricity market, complemented by a regulation on risk-preparedness in the electricity sector and a regulation on the Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (ACER). The new rules aim to empower customers, streamline cross-border electricity trading, ensure the security of supply and facilitate climate-friendly electricity generation.
