Associate members
GERG members have developed a large European reservoir of specialist knowl¬edge, which currently represents a high qual¬ity research resource numbering in excess of 2000, many of whom are international leaders in their field. Its priorities are:
GERG membership currently stands at 16 members from 10 countries, each actively involved in natural gas R&D, and these members serve a European gas industry which employs in excess of 190,000 people with the responsibility of supplying more than 85 million domestic, commercial, industrial and power station customers. In fact more than 210 million people across Europe gain direct benefit from the use of natural gas. It should be noted that despite, or maybe as a result of, the changes in the European natural gas landscape, GERG membership is growing steadily, with five new members in recent years and more on the horizon. GERG has evolved, from
the small, original group of gas industry R&D organisations
run part-time by one of the members, to a considerably stronger
organisation, with a professional Secretariat located in Brussels.
Correspondingly, more emphasis is placed these days on maintenance
of links with the EU and providing support to members in setting
up collaborative R&D projects. Mr Dave Pinchbeck
