To support Monaco's transition, the Prince's Government and Société Monégasque de l'Électricité et du Gaz (SMEG) pooled their skills in 2017 to create Monaco Energies Renouvelables (M.E.R.), with the aim of giving Monaco 100% green electricity production capacity equivalent to the territory's consumption.
Monaco's sole national power company is Société Monégasque de l'Electricité et du Gaz (SMEG, Monegasque Electricity and Gas Company), which operates the country's electric and gas grid and provides related services. SMEG is 60% owned by Engie, 20% by the State of Monaco, 15% by EDF, and the rest by private investors.

All of Monaco's energy production was then provided by subsidiaries of French companies.
