eceee is governed by a board elected at the General Assembly by the organisation’s members. The by-laws provide for a balance between members, who can be either individuals (personal members) or member organisations, that appoint a person to represent them in the board. At least 2/3 of the board’s members must be organisations. The General Assembly is held annually, but the board is elected in November every second (odd) year and serves for a two-year term.

Regardless of the number of affiliated employees, a member organisation never has more than three votes on a General Assembly. Thus, the by-laws ensure that the organisation’s views on various policy issues are those of the organisation and not that of a single group or company.

The board makes the final decision on policy statements. Statements are made by eceee as an organisation and do not necessarily reflect the views of each member.

The legal status of eceee and its whereabouts

From the creation of eceee in 1993 until 1998, the organisation had a provisional status. In 1998, eceee attained formal status as a non-profit association governed by Norwegian law. In 2005, the organisation moved to become a Swedish non-profit association (the legal term in Swedish is ideell förening).

The organisation has a small secretariat in Stockholm, and an Executive Director (Nils Borg). Please note that eceee’s staff resources are extremely limited and eceee does not offer general advice on energy efficiency other than what is published on eceee's web site.
