Daniel Dobbeni is the former CEO of Elia, the Belgian TSO, the former chairman of ENTSO-E, as well as the co-chairman of GO15. “It is a pity is that, despite the fact that we have the first Directive that was approved in 1996, most energy policies are still very much nationally driven when it goes to the implementation phase.” “We are not benefitting today from the seamless access to this diversity of generation sources, and this should absolutely become a priority of all our leaders.” “We asked the CEOs of the 17 biggest system operators what were their three nightmares, and to our astonishment we discovered that we shared most of these nightmares.” “All of these CEOs are concerned by the lack of stability of regulation and the fact that regulation has to cope with the very fast changing environment in which these companies operate.”
