European energy regulators: Energy exports between EU countries should not be restricted
It is very important that EU Member States continue exporting electricity and gas to neighbouring countries in order to secure sufficient supply of energy during the coming winter.

ACER emphasises that an integrated energy market supports the sufficient supply of energy in all Member States and lowers the peak prices of gas and electricity.
