Provision of Consultancy Support for Development of a Smart Meter Data Access Code
Commission for Regulation of Utilities
The Commission for Regulation of Utilities (‘CRU’) is Ireland’s independent energy and water regulator. The CRU was originally established as the Commission for Energy Regulation (‘CER’) in 1999. The CRU’s mission is to protect the public interest in Water, Energy and Energy Safety. The work of the CRU impacts every Irish home and business. The sectors we regulate underpin Irish economic competitiveness, investment and growth, while also contribute to our international obligations to address climate change.
The CRU is guided by four strategic priorities that sit alongside the core activities we undertake to deliver on the public interest. These are:
• deliver sustainable low-carbon solutions with well-regulated markets and networks,
• ensure compliance and accountability through best regulatory practice,
• develop effective communications to support customers and the regulatory process,
• foster and maintain a high-performance culture and organisation to achieve our vision.
