FEPS together with IPPR (Institute for Public Policy Research, UK) has established a focus group and a series of closed seminars with invited experts from a range of fields (private, public, associations, NGOs, academics) to discuss energy issues. The first one was held on the 30th April, the discussion looked at the EU 2030 energy package and wider European cooperation on energy policy. In the framework of this project, a serie of roundtables will also be held, one on 17th May in Riga with Freedom and Solidarity Foundation and one on 29th May in Helsinki with the Kalevi Sorsa Foundation.
