ENTSO-E Mission Statement

Who we are

ENTSO-E, the European Network of Transmission System Operators for 
Electricity, brings together 40 member TSOs from 36 countries to ensure the secure and coordinated operation of Europe’s electricity system – the world’s largest interconnected grid. Created with a legal mandate under EU law, ENTSO-E serves as the common voice of European TSOs, delivering technical coordination and strategic contributions to support Europe’s energy and climate objectives.

ENTSO-E brings together the unique expertise of TSOs for the benefit of European citizens by keeping the lights on, enabling the energy transition, and promoting the completion and optimal functioning of the internal electricity market, including via the fulfilment of the mandates given to ENTSO-E based on EU legislation.

Our Mission

The Association’s mission is to maintain system security across all timeframes, facilitate the efficient operation and development of the internal electricity market, and enable the integration of renewables and emerging technologies.

Our Vision

ENTSO-E’s vision is to support Europe in becoming the first climate-neutral continent by 2050, by creating a secure, sustainable, and affordable electricity system. This transformation requires deep sector integration, innovation, and close cooperation between all energy actors. ENTSO-E is committed to leading this transition by applying its system-wide expertise, delivering credible planning, and promoting climate-aligned infrastructure and market design.

Our Values

As a community of TSOs acting in solidarity under a clear legal mandate, ENTSO-E contributes to EU policy development through expert input and constructive dialogue. In all its work, the Association acts with technical rigour, transparency, and a focus on social welfare, system resilience, and long-term sustainability
