Shaping the Euro-Mediterranean Energy Market: Progress and Prospects

In recent years, the Mediterranean region has become increasingly crucial for European energy security and the sustainable energy transition. Its role as a supplier of natural gas, a hub for renewable energy, and a partner in electricity interconnection and green hydrogen production continues to grow.

Since 2023, under a renewed EU co-funded agenda, MEDREG has been supporting its members—energy regulators of Mediterranean countries—in developing cross-border infrastructure and enhancing the integration of renewables by sharing regulatory expertise and experience. As our members adopt convergent practices and a coherent regulatory approach, they will present and discuss the progress made and their prospects in shaping a Euro-Mediterranean energy market.

This high-level discussion will provide a platform for exchanging knowledge and building bridges between the energy industry and regulators, aimed at developing infrastructure and reinforcing the region’s energy supply security. The conference will also inform the audience about the concrete ways in which the Association supports its members in utilizing effective regulatory tools, adopting new technologies, and identifying synergies and complementarities to drive the energy transition and achieve energy diversification.

Gathering leaders from the industry, the Mediterranean regulatory authorities and international institutions, the conference will focus on the role of a regional consistent regulatory framework to drive the energy transition in the Mediterranean region on the one hand, and on the deployment of clean technologies and infrastructure to deliver the Trans-Mediterranean Energy Initiative, on the other hand.
