Iberian electricity sector: a transition towards a more liberalized and sustainable market Agustín García, M. Teresa García-Álvarez y Blanca Moreno,

Iberian electricity sector: background

• Scarcity of fossil fuels. • Energy production fundamentally based on water resources and fuel imports.

• External energy dependence. • Sector’s configuration was different in comparison with developed countries • Uncompetitive sector.

• Out-of-date and unable to sustain an increasing demand.

Iberian electricity sector: transition

EU reform aimed to a more competitive sector: • Prices can transmit the efficiency improvements to consumers

• Single market using regional electricity markets (MIBEL): spot – forward • There is still a high market concentration, especially in Portugal.

In short: • Process evaluation isn’t easy: different goals and different points of view

• Renewable deployment process vs economic growth and modernization: • GDP: some evidence, specifically for Spain and for capacity (wind) • Employment:

• Spain: wind • Portugal: biomass

• Innovation (Spain): increase in patents (wind and solar) • GDP, employment and innovation: negative effects of financial crises

• Future: • European and international agreements • National policy incentives • Problems:

• Electricity market: high prices, limited competition degree, consumers opinion,… • External dependence (and hydro dependence).

• …
