We foster cooperation among electricity transmission system operators in Europe
About us
ENTSO-E, the European Network of Transmission System Operators, represents 39 electricity transmission system operators (TSOs) from 35 countries across Europe, thus extending beyond EU borders. ENTSO-E was established and given legal mandates by the EU’s Third Package for the Internal Energy Market in 2009, which aims at further liberalising the gas and electricity markets in the EU. Due to unbundling and the liberalisation of the energy market, the transmission system has become the meeting place in which the various players interact.
ENTSO-E members share the objective of completing and ensuring the optimal functioning of the internal energy market. They also support the ambitious European energy and climate agenda.
Through deliverables such as long-term network development plans (TYNDPs), pan-European network codes, coordination of research and development plans, EU-wide system adequacy, etc, ENTSO-E is contributing to building one of the world’s largest integrated electricity market, the benefits of which will not only be felt by all those in the energy sector, but also by Europe’s overall economy, today and into the future.

On 16 March 2022, the TSOs of Continental Europe took a historic step by carrying out the emergency synchronisation with the Ukrainian and Moldovan power systems. This achievement, made possible by years of collaboration, has strengthened Europe’s energy security and resilience. Synchronisation is a cornerstone of power system stability. The successful connection of Ukraine and Moldova has provided critical support in times of need and has reinforced the European interconnected system – just as the recent synchronisation of the Baltic States with Continental Europe has further enhanced regional energy independence. NPC UKRENERGO and SE Moldelectrica have since joined ENTSO-E respectively as member and observer, actively contributing to the work of ENTSO-E on the future of the power system. ENTSO-E remains committed to supporting both TSOs as they continue to operate under challenging conditions. #EnergySecurity #ENTSOE #Ukraine #Moldova #Baltics #Collaboration
Three years together. On 16 March 2022, Ukraine’s power system emergency synchronized with the Continental European network ENTSO-E. It happened after we had lived in isolation for three weeks – having disconnected from the power grids of russia and belarus only a few hours before the start of a full-scale invasion. Connecting to the pan-European network in extreme conditions – with military activities only a couple of kilometres from Kyiv – was an unprecedented historical step. “The interconnection of the Ukrainian and European energy networks has given us so much. First of all, we have become part of the ‘energy EU’ – russia has lost its leverage over the Ukrainian power system, and this has certainly increased our security. In the aftermath of the russian missile and drone attacks, we are strongly supported by emergency assistance and electricity imports from neighbouring countries. We have introduced joint auctions for access to interconnectors and restored the possibility of exporting Ukrainian electricity, which is extremely important to balance the power system and maintain the liquidity of the Ukrainian energy market. During these three years, our colleagues at ENTSO-E have been helping us with equipment. We are very grateful to our partners for their continued support,” said Oleksii Brekht, Acting Chairman of the Management Board at Ukrenergo. NPC Ukrenergo is now a full member of ENTSO-E. We are among the Top 5 largest transmission system operators in Europe, second only to the system operators of France, Italy and Spain. The Company regularly participates in meetings of working and expert groups, committees, and the ENTSO-E Assembly. We gained access to potential European funding for large energy projects. Together – we are more resilient!

Europe’s electricity grid is evolving fast, and a resilient, secure, and future-ready supply chain is key to delivering the energy transition. That’s why ENTSO-E, EU DSO Entity, T&D Europe , and Europacable came together today in Brussels for the second joint experts meeting on Action Point 13 of the hashtag #GridActionPlan. This collaborative effort is tackling some of the biggest challenges in procurement and supply chains, including: 📌 Boosting transparency between system operators and manufacturers 📌 Strengthening procurement rules to support the energy transition 📌 Encouraging investment in European manufacturing capacity We were also honoured to engage with Zuzana Sádlová (DG ENER, European Commission) about the upcoming EU Forum on infrastructure hashtag #CopenhagenForum in June Ensuring a robust supply chain is not just a technical necessity—it’s a strategic priority for Europe’s energy future. We’re proud to work alongside our par

ENTSO-E and EU DSO Entity look forward to continuing the cooperation with EU Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (ACER) and the European Commission for the finalisation of the Network Code on Demand Response, the preparatory work for the implementation of this regulation as well as establishment of the European Stakeholder Committee on Demand Response!
🆕🚀 New network code on demand response will further advance the energy transition ✅ On 7 March 2025, ACER submitted its proposal for a new EU-wide #NetworkCode on demand response to the European Commission. This is the result of close collaboration with network operators (ENTSO-E, EU DSO Entity) and extensive consultation. What is demand response? ⚡ Demand response is when consumers–retail and industrial–intentionally adjust their #electricity consumption in response to a change in the electricity market price or a financial incentive to increase, decrease or shift the timing of their electricity consumption. #DemandResponse in electricity markets is increasingly important to support more variable #renewable generation being added to the #PowerGrid. 🌬️☀️ Why does this network code matter? 💡 This network code will ensure that demand response resources (such as consumers, storage providers, and distributed #generation) can fully participate in wholesale electricity markets, providing much needed flexibility to an evolving power system driven by #RenewableEnergy and thereby contributing to #EnergySecurity and the transition to #CleanEnergy. 🔢 To achieve this, the network code and the related amendments to existing regulations (balancing, system operation, and demand connection) cover four main areas: 1️⃣ Market access: The new #EU-wide rules will simplify market entry for smaller #energy players and enable standardisation of demand response measurement. 2️⃣ Service provider qualification process: New measures will streamline prequalification, product verification, and participation for all resources. 3️⃣ Procurement processes: Transparent rules will regulate #SystemOperator services procurement, with justified exceptions to market-based methods. 4️⃣ System operators’ coordination: Stronger collaboration between system operators will improve renewables integration, congestion management, and system stability. What are the next steps? ⏭️ The European Commission will review the proposal and initiate the process of establishing the Demand Response (DR) Regulation and amending the three related regulations. Once adopted by Member States, these will become legally binding across the EU. Get involved! 🗣️ ACER will hold a webinar on 27 March 2025 to present its proposal for the network code on demand response, along with amendments to the three related electricity regulations.
