EURELECTRIC PAPER - MYTHS AND REALITIES OF EUROPEAN ELECTRICITY MARKETS - APRIL 2016

A number of myths tend to hijack the European debate on retail electricity markets. Common misconceptions include claims that energy bills increase due to rising company profits, or that energy suppliers intentionally make it difficult for consumers to compare offers. These myths need to be addressed and the realities properly clarified and explained to allow the debate to focus on the real issues preventing retail electricity markets from functioning properly.

EURELECTRIC PAPER - Vision about the role of Distribution System Operators (DSO) - February 2016

DSOs are key players for enabling a successful energy transition while providing a high-quality service to all customers. DSOs must act as neutral market facilitators and guarantee distribution system stability, power quality, technical efficiency and cost effectiveness in the future evolution of energy networks towards a smarter grid concept. DSOs are local or regional operators and, as such, they must work to the benefit of customers.
EULECTRIC PAPER - DRIVERS OF ELECTRICITY BILLS - FEBRUARY 2016

Taxes and policy support costs (PSCs) are still pushing electricity prices up for end users. In fact, between 2008 and 2014, policy support costs (Levies) have increased on average by 170% for households. In 2014, the weight of the taxes & PSCs component almost equates the energy & supply component for the average residential consumer. A breakdown of the taxes and PSCs component shows that taxes (i.e. VAT & excise taxes) still account on average for the largest part of “non-contestable” charges of the bill.
