 ==== Co-operation of national regulators ====
-A new Agency, the [[Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators]] (ACER), was formed to help national regulators coordinate the smooth functioning of an integrated energy market. The agency is independent of the [[European Commission]], [[National Governments|national governments]], and energy companies. Areas of work for the agency include: deciding on cross-border issues in case of disagreement and monitoring e.g. retail prices.

 National transmission system operators are responsible for ensuring electricity and natural gas is effectively transported through pipelines and grids.

 The third package of energy market liberalisation rests on 5 pillars:
 ==== Unbundling ====
-Requires an ownership separation for electricity generation and transmission networks. Companies active in both generation and transmission are therefore required to split up. This forced split aims at increasing competition.

 ===The First and Second Energy Packages===
-The first two phases towards the so-called free market, are following the adoption of Directive 96/9 2 of 19 December 1996 which established the principle of opening up sites of over 100 GW/year in national energy markets. Due to the limited success of this first Directive, it was repealed in 2003 and replaced by [http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32003L0054 Directive 2003/54/EC] that aimed at speeding up liberalization. This is commonly referred to as the '''second energy-climate package'''.
