Policy Paper (September 2013) By Davide Soto Naranjo (LL.M, McGill University), former Canada-Europe Transatlantic Dialogue research intern

In this policy paper, the origins of the regulation of trade in energy will be explored from the beginning of the European integration process until today. Subsequently, an account of the state of play of the multi-level governance doctrine in EU scholarship will be given. Then, an analysis of the electricity forum will be conducted, identifying multi-level elements of it. Finally, the paper concludes by discussing the possibility of using the EU regulation of electricity as a model for the WTO.
