The regional government, known as the Conseil régional, is responsible for a range of public services including economic development, vocational training, transport infrastructure, and environmental policies. It plays a key role in supporting the transition to sustainable energy sources through funding programs and partnerships with industry.

In recent years, the region has been active in promoting green hydrogen production as part of its efforts to decarbonize industry and mobility. It administers grants from European funds such as the Just Transition Fund to support projects that contribute to regional economic and environmental goals.

The region operates as a public body under French law, with its headquarters in Lyon. It is governed by an elected assembly and works in coordination with national and European authorities on development initiatives.
