Analysis of Georgia’s accession to the European Energy Community

09.02.2015

The main focus of the Georgia-EU Association Agreement is a phased approximation of Georgia’s legislative and regulatory basis to EU norms. In the energy sector, the main mechanism for the execution of this objective is Georgia’s accession to the European Energy Community (EC).

Open Society Georgia Foundation has prepared the study that highlights advantages and disadvantages of Georgia’s accession to the European Energy Community and assesses possible risks and threats that may be associated with postponing the process of accession. The paper intends to present civil society’s vision and standpoint regarding the on-going process. The policy paper is targeting  policy makers and the general public.

The publication is prepared within the framework of the Open Society Georgia Foundation’s EU funded project Strengthening capacities of the National Platforms (NP) of the Eastern Partnership Civil Society Forum (EaP CSF) by the 3rd Working Group on Energy Safety and Environment.
