The French energy regulator, Commission de régulation de l’énergie (CRE), held a biannual meeting on December 2, 2025, bringing together various independent administrative and public authorities (AAI and API). This meeting serves as a vital platform for discussing regulatory issues at both the French and European levels.

Thierry Lambert, the Interministerial Delegate for Public Transformation, opened the meeting by emphasizing the role of the Interministerial Directorate for Public Transformation (DITP) in enhancing the simplicity and effectiveness of public services. His remarks highlighted the alignment of DITP's mission with the priorities of the AAI and API, particularly in terms of improving user experience.

The agenda included discussions on best practices from each authority and updates on ongoing joint projects aimed at ensuring clarity in decision-making and providing citizens with essential information. These efforts are crucial for fulfilling the public service mandates of the authorities involved.

The meeting underscored the commitment of the AAI and API to coordinate their efforts in economic regulation, fostering a collaborative environment for addressing shared challenges. It also provided an opportunity for forward-looking discussions and the exchange of best practices to enhance the effectiveness of their actions.

The next meeting is scheduled for spring 2026, continuing the dialogue on regulatory efficiency and public service improvement.
