EU energy governance relates to how the EU institutions and Member States interact, both formally and informally, in order to realise the energy policy objectives of the EU on the one hand, and fulfil national aims on the other.
Our aim is to bring the potential tensions between EU objectives and national objectives to wider attention than has been the case thus far and to scrutinise the progress of work. On the basis of our evidence, we hope to make a constructive contribution to the debate that will take place at the December European Council and beyond. We will make policy recommendations to the Commission and Member States, including the UK, accordingly.
