EURELECTRIC IN BRIEF
The Union of the Electricity Industry - EURELECTRIC is the sector
association representing the common interests of the electricity industry at
pan-European level, plus its affiliates and associates on several other
continents.
EURELECTRIC's mission is to contribute to the development and
competitiveness of the electricity industry and to promote the role of
electricity in the advancement of society.
As a centre of strategic expertise, EURELECTRIC identifies the common
interests of its Members and, through research into the marketplace,
technologies, legislation, etc, assists them in formulating common solutions
to be implemented and in coordinating and carrying out the necessary action.
To that end, it also acts in liaison with other international associations
and organisations, recognising their specific missions and responsibilities.
Within the European Union, EURELECTRIC represents the electricity industry
in public affairs, in particular in relation to the EU legislative
institutions in order to promote the interests of its Members at a political
level.
EURELECTRIC's Full Member structure is based on national representation, via
the national electricity association, where such a body exists, or the
leading electricity enterprise in each country. Currently there are 33 Full
Members, including all 27 EU Member States, current applicants negotiating
to join the Community, plus other European OECD countries.
Membership is enriched by European and International Affiliate Members
representing the electricity industry across the rest of Europe, in the
Mediterranean basin and on other continents and by Business Associate
Members from other sectors with stakeholder links to or interest in the
electricity industry.
