Over the next two years, Med-TSO has committed itself to its new project, TEASIMED (Towards an Efficient, Adequate, Sustainable and Interconnected MEDiterranean power system) which carries forward the work of the Association with the continued support from the European Commission.

As its third project with the backing of the EC as well as recognition of its efforts from regional stakeholders, Med-TSO has become known as the voice of the Mediterranean Transmission System Operators. This is due in part to the Association’s work carried out in their recent Mediterranean Projects 1 and 2 (MP1 & MP2), which reinforced its position as a sort of ‘regional extension’ of the European Transmission System Operators

MP1 and MP2 have made way for the development of TEASIMED as the building blocks for Med-TSO’s roadmap for achieving the progressive integration of its members’ power systems at a Mediterranean level. Following the previous two landmark initiatives, which established a master plan of interconnection with an extensive knowledge exchange program, the new project will consolidate a number of the activities from them, while launching new ones.

Med-TSO is the Association of the Mediterranean Transmission System Operators (TSOs) for electricity, operating the High Voltage Transmission Networks of 19 Mediterranean Countries. It was established on 19 April 2012 in Rome as a technical platform that, using multilateral cooperation as a strategy of regional development, could facilitate the integration of the Mediterranean power systems and foster security and socio – economic development in the region.
