EU ELECTRICITY MARKETS
A two - day seminar
Electricity markets across Europe have changed dramatically over the last decade as market liberalisation, privatisation, structural change and changing power generation dynamics have replaced the status quo of European energy. The change continues with ongoing moves for further market liberalisation and competition cases against a number of major European energy companies. Since September 2007 discussions have focussed on the third legislative package published by the European Commission, but other ongoing market issues remain, including electricity trading market development and market coupling, transportation access, security of supply, supply competition, unbundling, renewables and the environment.
The EU electricity markets course provides a
review of power markets across Europe,
examining the practical extent of
liberalisation, and the challenges and changes
facing these markets. The course reviews the
likely impact of further liberalisation
proposals and changing market dynamics, and
assesses the strategy of key players in the
European energy market.
