Abstract: A patchwork of different energy situations characterizes the European energy sector. The extreme diversity of the situations can be explained by economic and historical circumstances peculiar to each country. This results in considerable differences in intervention and in the policies chosen by the different States (planned or market economy), between the structures (centralization or decentralization), and between the status of companies (public, private and mixed). Legal disparities between European countries are connected with the political and economic factors in each State. Thus, in spite of apparently similar energy objectives. member States can pursue diverging energy policies, through differences in implementation.
