- Giles Dickson, RES Associations - Wind Europe;
- Antonella Battaglini, NGOs - Germanwatch / RGI;
- Juan José Alba Ríos, Eurelectric;
- Johannes Schulz, EFET;

- Inger Kristin Holm, IFIEC;
- Walburga Hemetsberger, RES Associations - Solar Power Europe;
- Monique Goyens, BEUC;
- Rickard Nilsson, Europex;
- Gert De Block, DSO Associations – CEDEC
The European Commission, the European Parliament and ACER have an Observer Status to the Advisory Council meetings.
The Advisory Council will make publicly available recommendations on ENTSO-E’s work programme and deliverables that the association will then use in its decision-making and policy development. The Advisory Council’s members have elected Giles Dickson from Wind Euope as its Chair and Antonella Battaglini from RGI as its Vice-Chair.
