New Energy market report from Datamonitor: "Energy Market Landscape: UK"
 
Sept. 7, 2010 - PRLog -- Evolving competitive dynamics are rapidly and significantly changing the face of the gas and power markets in and around Europe. As such, a timely and broadly based understanding of the market landscape is vital for players throughout the energy value chain. Central to this is an understanding of the exact stage of competitive development reached in each market, and how it is likely to change.

Scope

* Up-to-date insight on market structures, regulatory developments, supply and demand balances, asset developments and player strategies.
* Insight into current levels of gas and power competitive intensity benchmarked against 33 relevant markets (EU 27 and 6 related countries).
* Forecasts of how the nine metrics making up the competitive intensity scores will change by 2012.

Highlights

The MCI scores draw on nine underlying metrics grouped into three categories: Market Framework (Regulatory Effectiveness; Pricing Regime; Ease of Third Party Access), Supplier Push (Wholesale Fragmentation, Retail Fragmentation, Traded Market Maturity), and Customer Pull (Access to Market Information, Consumer Representation, Propensity to Switch)

Each of the Energy Market Landscape series provides a profile of both the relevant gas and power market. Issues examined include regulatory structures, player strategies and supply/demand dynamics. There is also a list of operational, planned and under construction infrastructure including power stations, pipelines, LNG terminals and storage sites

Reasons to Purchase

* Obtain up-to-date, relevant and standardized information on European and related energy markets from a single source.
* Have a logical framework to monitor market developments and emerging trends, identify opportunities and plan strategies accordingly.

Competitive Intensity Analysis Overview 26
Datamonitor's Market Competitive Intensity (MCI) Index offers a robust framework for measuring the development of competition in energy markets 26
The MCI Index shows how competitive a particular market is. This has applications for both new entrants seeking to enter the market and established players and former monopoly incumbents seeking to defend their market share from new entrants. 26
The MCI Index assesses markets as they stood in early 2010 and forecasts conditions likely to be prevailing in July 2013, five years after full market opening. 26
The MCI assessment draws on nine underlying metrics grouped into three broad clusters: Market Framework; Supplier Push; Customer Pull 27
Each of the nine pillars has an assessment scale to allow for the comparison of diverse markets (see Appendix for more details) 28
Gas Market Competitive Intensity 29
The UK gas market is considerably ahead of all of the other gas markets surveyed (as is its power market) 29
The UK achieves high gas scores throughout most of the nine pillars 30
The developed and fully deregulated nature of the UK market allows it to achieve the highest market framework score in this study 30
Effectiveness of Regulator [2010: 8/10; 2013: 9/10] 30
Ease of Third Party Access [2010: 9/10; 2013: 10/10] 31
Pricing Regime [2010: 3.5/10; 2013: 5/10] 31
The only Supplier Push factor not to score 10/10 in the UK is Retail Market Fragmentation 31
Wholesale Market Fragmentation [2010: 10/10; 2013: 10/10] 31
Retail Market Fragmentation [2010: 6/10; 2013: 8/10] 31
Traded Market Maturity [2010: 10/10; 2013: 10/10] 31
High levels of switching, and facilities to assist this switching, result in high Customer Pull scores 32
Access to Market Information and Assistance [2010: 10/10; 2013: 10/10] 32
Consumer Representation [2010: 8.5/10; 2013: 9/10] 32
Propensity to Switch [2010: 2.5/10; 2013: 2.5/10] 32
Electricity Market Competitive Intensity 33
The UK's power score is considerably ahead of the second and third placed markets 33
Nearly all of the UK's power scores are at the upper end of the scale 34
Apart from pricing regime, the UK's Market Framework metrics achieve scores at the top end of the scale 34
Effectiveness of Regulator [2010: 7/10; 2013: 8/10] 34
Ease of Third Party Access [2010: 10/10; 2013: 10/10] 35
Pricing Regime [2010: 5 /10; 2013: 6/10] 35
Supplier Push metrics are driven by the existence of a fragmented wholesale market and the well developed traded market 35
Wholesale Market Fragmentation [2010: 8/10; 2013: 8/10] 35
Retail Market Fragmentation [2010: 7/10; 2013: 8/10] 35
Traded Market Maturity [2010: 8/10; 2013: 10/10] 35
All of the UK's Customer Pull metrics score at, or close to, the top end of the scale 36
