  • Summary/Abstract: This article analyzes the process of Europeanization in Georgian energy legislation through the approximation (harmonization) of national legal frameworks with the European Union's energy acquis. It examines Georgia's alignment with EU standards in market liberalization, regulatory reforms, sustainability, and energy security, as mandated by the EU Georgia Association Agreement and the Energy Community Treaty. The study emphasizes the role of legal approximation as a mechanism for achieving regulatory coherence and fostering regional energy cooperation. It evaluates the challenges and legal implications of transposing EU directives into Georgian law, focusing on institutional reforms, enforcement mechanisms, and infrastructure modernization. The article concludes by assessing these reforms' broader legal and strategic significance for Georgia's integration into the European energy market and its alignment with EU governance principles, contributing to the discourse on external legal influence in transitional economies.
