The UK Government main proposals for
the privatisation of the Electricity Supply
Industry in England and Wales; Feb 1988
• Decisions about the supply of electricity should be driven by the needs of customers.
• Competition is the best guarantee of the customers’ interest.
• Regulation should be designed to promote competition, oversee
prices and protect the customers’ interest in areas where natural
monopoly will remain.
• Security and safety of supply must be maintained.

The UK story - so far
• Competitive and non-competitive elements in the industry identified• Differing corporate strategies apparent
Varying entry into overseas marketsVertical integration and mergers with other utilitiesTakeovers by overseas companiesMerging of supply and other service businesses
• Persistent government and regulatory interventionDiminishing market power in generation and divestment of generation plantMerger policyPool Review, introduction of NETAFuel policy and the environment

European Union (EU) electricity liberalisation
• Competition in generation- Free market entry, no planning or central planning,
competitive tenders• Competition in supply
- Negotiated 3rd party access- Access into single buyer system
• Enforced market opening- 22% in 1999 at least 33% by 2003, differing rates of opening
• Transmission charging• Is competition ‘real’ or imaginary

Worldwide Trends
• Dividing utilities into generation, transmission, distribution and supply businesses.
• Widespread introduction of independent Power Producers.
• Splitting existing generation into two or more competing companies - sometimes.
• Operation in accordance with Codes and Licenses and more accountability to external bodies.
• Choice for customers - sometimes.
• Mergers, acquisitions and global investment pattern.
• Environmental law enforcement and rise of renewables.
• Power Pools, where possible.
• Increases in efficiency - but who benefits?
![Page 14: Electricity Supply in the New Century Dr Malcolm Kennedy Chairman PB Power Ltd including the power businesses of Merz and McLellan and Kennedy & Donkin](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e505503460f94b477df/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Effects on shareholders and their companies
• Power companies will merge and get bigger and there will be fewer but bigger global companies.
• Mega-Utilities will emerge.
• Efficient companies will take over inefficient companies.
• Obligation to meet toughening environmental laws means more renewables.
• Further move towards gas and eventually new investment in nuclear.
• More accountability, with monopoly businesses under more scrutiny.
• ‘Steady’ stock market performance except if excessive risks taken overseas.

Governments and Regulators will:
• Not abandon ESI to ‘a free market’.• Ensure customer interests, affordability and
environmental requirements are applied.• Insist on transparency of business.• Not allow customer and shareholder interests
to get out of balance.• Oversee rise in Eastern Europe and Middle
East electricity prices.• Have to deal with “cherry picking”.

Customers will:
• See prices change for some time then stabilise.• Enjoy improved customer service response from
power companies.• Have security, quality and reliability safeguarded,
if not improved.• Live in a cleaner environment.• Still take their electricity at 240v and 50Hz
(in most of the world).
