Who we are

EPG is an independent think-tank specialising in energy and climate policy, focusing on the decarbonisation of the Romanian and Central and Southeastern European economies. EPG operates as a research institute primarily financed through competitive research grants. Its research aims to promote a constructive, evidence-based dialogue on decarbonisation and economic transformation among decision-makers and the public, both regionally and globally. 

Who we are

The Energy Policy Group (EPG) is a Bucharest-based non-profit, independent think-tank specializing in energy and climate policy, market analytics and energy strategy, grounded in February 2014. EPG’s regional focus is Eastern Europe and the Black Sea Basin. Its analyses, though, are informed by wider trends and processes at global and EU levels.
