CEER – Analysis of the COVID-19 Pandemic’s Effects on the Energy Sector

In other words, the group focuses on assessing how the energy sector was affected by this pandemic, as well as the steps that governments, regulators, and others in the energy sector took in response to this crisis. Reports published by the working group can be found here.
