The Régie is the economic regulatory tribunal for the energy sector in Québec. Under its constituting Act, since December 10, 2016, the Régie is composed of 12 commissioners, including the chair and vice-chair, appointed by the government on the basis of their expertise. As of March 31, 2021, it relies on a team of 10 commissioners with five-year terms. The president coordinates and distributes the work amongst the commissioners, is responsible for the administration of the board and directs its staff. For these purposes, it is advised by an executive committee composed of the vice-president and senior managers of the Régie.
The Régie, an independent and impartial administrative tribunal, examines applications submitted to it through hearings, written consultations or other mechanisms provided for in the Act and the Regulation respecting the procedure of the Régie de l'énergie. In the performance of its duties, it must respect the rules of procedural fairness.
As a specialized tribunal, the Régie must have specialized knowledge and expertise in order to accurately analyze the applications and evidence submitted before it. Thus, its commissioners and employees are specialists in the energy sector and economic regulation who are chosen and appointed on the basis of the quality and relevance of their experience and training.
The Régie has a light structure. Its employees work out of the head office in Montreal, where most of the activities and hearings take place. It also has an office in Quebec City where it can hold mediation sessions and hearings for clients in the Capitale-Nationale and surrounding regions.
