Goals / remit
| Goals / remit of the organisation: |
Oesterreichs Energie, previously Verband der Elektrizitätsunternehmen Österreichs (VEÖ), is an independent advocacy group for the Austrian electricity industry. Since its establishment in 1953, Oesterreichs Energie has represented the jointly developed sector interests in political, administrative and public contexts.
Oesterreichs Energie currently represents over 140 member companies with around 21,000 employees. These companies generate more than 90% of Austria’s electricity and operate the Austrian transport and distribution networks. In 2009, the member companies’ electricity production reached 68,973 GWh, around 62% of which was generated from sustainable hydropower. Furthermore, approximately 250,000 km of lines are maintained and extended to meet the requirements of the European electricity market.
In representing its members’ interests with regard to energy policies, Oesterreichs Energie works in close cooperation with national and international political decision makers. The legal, regulatory, technical and economic framework conditions of the deregulated electricity market are jointly developed in working groups with the responsible ministries and regulatory authorities.
Oesterreichs Energie conducts the regular collective agreement negotiations with the employee representatives and concludes the collective agreements for the electricity companies’ employees and workers with the employers.
