Tariff Council
The Tariff Council is a specific forum for consultation on tasks assigned to ERSE in the scope of tariffs and prices. It is incumbent on the Tariff Council to deliver (non-binding) opinions on the approval and review of tariffs regulations, as well as on the establishment of tariffs and prices.
It is a collegiate body, composed by the members provided for in article 46 of ERSE’s Statutes, appointed in accordance with the rules established in Regulation 628/2019, of 9 August, for a renewable three-year term of office.
The plenary and sections of the Tariff Council (electricity section and natural gas section) are chaired by a person of recognized standing and independence appointed by the member of the government responsible for energy.
