THE ENERGY COMMUNITY OF SOUTH EAST EUROPE HAS ANOTHER EEA BEEN BORN?

Summary/Abstract: In June 2002 the South East Europe Electricity Regulation Forum (SEEERF) agreed on ‘the creation of a competitive regional electricity market in South Eastern Europe (SEE) based on the rules currently in force and being developed in the European Union and integrated within the European Union’s Internal Electricity Market’1. Another four years later, on 1 July 2006, the Treaty establishing the Energy Community (TEnC or ‘the Treaty’)2 entered into force. It outreaches the SEEERF’s intention by creating an integrated market in electricity and natural gas in SEE. Time and again the Energy Community has been compared to the European Coal and Steal Community because of their alleged similar historical importance in uniting countries that used to wage war against each other.
