The Walloon Region is competent for the regional aspects of energy policy, in particular the local transport and distribution of electricity (networks with voltages of less than or equal to 70,000 volts), the public distribution of gas and the rational use of energy.

The Federal Authority is mainly responsible for nuclear energy, the federal equipment plan for electricity, major energy storage infrastructures, the transport and production of energy, and prices.

The communes frequently use intercommunal associations to manage the public distribution of energy.
