On the occasion of the 22nd General Assembly, marking the tenth anniversary of EU-supported Mediterranean Energy Regulators’ Association (MEDREG), the members elected last week their new President and two Vice-Presidents.
The new MEDREG Presidency consists of Mr. Alexandre Santos, Member of the Board of Directors of the Portuguese regulator, and two Vice-Presidents, Mrs. Gülefşan Demirbaş (EMRA, Turkey) and Ms. Wijdan Al Rabadi (EMRC, Jordan). They join the MEDREG Permanent Vice-President, Ms. Valeria Termini (AEEGSI, Italy), thus increasing significantly women’s representation at the head of the Organisation.
Presenting his vision for the association for the two-year term, Mr. Santos, stated: “My main priority will be to strengthen MEDREG’s capability to support its members, through tailor-made approaches that address market and regulatory developments and priorities in our countries.”
The five Working Groups and Task Forces have appointed their Chair, Co-Chair and Vice-Chair, resulting in a good geographical balance between EU and non-EU countries.
MEDREG is intensifying its support to Southern Mediterranean members in setting up effective electricity and gas regulatory bodies, dedicating its resources to supporting national regulatory reforms by providing trainings, peer-review and capacity building activities to its members.
MEDREG is an Association that brings together energy regulators of 21 countries around the Mediterranean in order to promote a clear, stable and harmonised legal and regulatory framework through a continuous cooperation among the Northern, Southern and Eastern shores of the Mediterranean basin. MEDREG benefits from the support of the European Union and of the Council of European Energy Regulators (CEER).
