Electricity grids are the enablers of electrification as well as renewables and market integration, thus, putting Europe on track towards a timely and cost-efficient energy transition, and supporting European competitiveness, energy security and resilience.

RGI strongly believes that the upcoming European Grids Package should give due attention to implementation, including efforts for planning a resilient and future-proof energy system, a holistic approach to acceleration and unlocking investments for electricity grids.

Over the past years, the European Union has put in place a comprehensive regulatory and policy framework, including the EU Action Plan for Grids, which needs to be translated into action. Optimisation opportunities already exist within current frameworks, such as through strengthened regional cooperation, and the Grids Package should fully leverage them.
