EABC Energy Group
An Industry Forum Supporting the Work of the
US –EU Energy Council
Mission Statement
The EU and US Government have strategic, multi-facetted worldwide
energy policies and goals. Some of these issues will be dealt with by
the US-EU Energy Council. The mission of the EABC Energy Group
is to provide regular, strategic, and focused policy briefings to the
principals and staff of the US-EU Energy Council.

EABC Energy Group
US-EU Energy Council Briefings
 In 2009 the US-EU Energy Council was created to address key strategic energy goals through
enhanced US-EU government and industry collaboration.
 EABC aims to serve as a key business partner in these discussions informally, as well as through
more formal industry-government energy policy briefings.
As a result in part of EABC input to the Council in 2010, the following language was included in
the US-EU Energy Council’s November 2010 press release:
“We directed the Energy Security Working Group to consider issues related to Nigeria and to
encourage the Nigerian government to use its oil and gas resources to promote economic
development to the long-term benefit of the nation, while sustaining a positive investment
climate and protecting the environment. Toward those ends, we urged the use of the Extractive
Industries Transparency Initiative and of other mechanisms to improve transparency and
accountability in the oil and gas sector. We noted the importance of power sector reform to
enhance access to electricity for Nigeria’s citizens.”
