The Council of European Energy Regulators (CEER) is a not-for-profit association in which Europe's independent national regulators of electricity and gas voluntarily cooperate to protect consumer' interests and to facilitate the creation of a single, competitive, efficient and sustainable internal market for gas and electricity in Europe.

CEER acts as a preparatory body for  the European Regulators' Group for Electricity and Gas (ERGEG). ERGEG is the European Commission's formal advisory group of energy regulators. ERGEG was established by the European Commission, in November 2003, to assist the Commission in creating a single-EU market for electricity and gas. ERGEG's members are the heads of the national energy regulatory authorities in the 27 EU Member States.

The Regional Initiatives is the regulators' flagship project to speed up the integration of Europe's national energy markets. The Regional Initiatives has created 3 regional markets for gas and 7 for electricity in Europe. ERGEG and the European Commission work at EU level to ensure the coherence and covergence of these regions towards the ultimate goal, a single-EU energy market.
