With support from USAID and NARUC, the National Agency for Energy Regulation of Moldova (ANRE) finalized and approved a new communications strategy for 2024-2027. By establishing a strategic plan that delivers cohesive messages on the commission’s roles, responsibilities, and achievements, ANRE can better convey its value proposition to the public and foster effective collaboration across energy stakeholders that enables a unified approach toward achieving market development goals. The finalization of the strategy also supports USAID’s U.S.-Europe Energy Bridge goal of bolstering the resilience of critical infrastructure by empowering ANRE staff to respond more efficiently to crises that affect energy prices and supply, such as geopolitical events, natural disasters, and cyberattacks.
We are currently recruiting volunteers for activities in the coming months, with opportunities for NARUC members and energy experts to support our projects in renewable energy integration, public communications, and other fields.
