The General Assembly is the main decisional forum of ERGaR, where members get to shape the direction of the association as well as to elect the Executive Board. All members including associated members are part of the General Assembly and can vote. Full members are generally registries, DSOs, TSOs and biogas associations. Associated members are mostly traders, utility companies and consulting companies.
The Executive Board is made up of nine members from different European Countries and is the body that is consulted on a regular basis to ensure the organisation heads in the direction agreed by the General Assembly. The Executive Board can be made of 9 members, of which a maximum of two can be associated members.
Moreover, the association has a permanent Secretariat in Brussels to assist the Board and its members with the daily activity of the association.
