On 17 April 2025, the Business Council of Mongolia (BCM), through its Energy Transition Working Group and in collaboration with the Mongolia Economic Development Board (EDB), convened its first meeting to incorporate private-sector perspectives into the draft Energy Law. The session focused on improving the legal and policy environment for energy projects, addressing regulatory challenges related to energy security and independence, and supporting Mongolia’s broader energy-transition goals.

The program featured opening remarks by E. Orchlon (Chair of the Working Group ) and B. Byambasaikhan (Vice Chair), followed by presentations from O. Badral (Senior Analyst, EDB) and S. Tsetsgee (Consulting Engineer). In an open discussion, participants identified priority issues and agreed to develop joint recommendations for submission to policymakers and relevant ministries.
