REGULATORY REFORM IN THE ELECTRICITY SECTOR: AN ANALYSIS OF THE COMMISSION'S INTERNAL MARKET PROPOSALS
分析了欧盟委员会1992年提出的电力行业第二阶段改革提案，包括发电竞争、第三方接入和拆分措施，并讨论了这些提案对供应安全、价格和监管的影响。
After a first phase of market opening decided by the Council of Ministers in 1990, the European Commission proposed in February 1992 a second phase including competition in the electricity generation, line construction and third party access (TPA), and associated measures (including unbundling) required for the system to function effectively. The logic of the proposals is examined, as are the implications of TPA for security of supply, for prices to captive customers and for regulation. Concerns expressed on these issues are analyzed and found to be rather theoretical and not to take account of the detail of the Commission's proposals. The author notes that, having given maximum scope to subsidiarity the Commission will need carefully to supervise implementation of the proposals, that interconnections will need to be developed on a European level and that in a later phase the further opening of the franchise market will be an important issue.
