Decomposing changes in competition in the Dutch electricity market through the residual supply index

Abstract: We propose to assess the influence of a number of events on the degree of competition in the Dutch electricity wholesale market over the period 2006-2011 through a decomposition method based on the Residual Supply Index. We distinguish regulatory market-integration events, firm-level events and changes in the level of residual demand.We conclude that market-integration measures to improve competition have been effective, but that the changes in residual demand appear to have been equally important.Firm-level e… Show more

“…This then gives the company a possibility to exercise market power at that hour. Usually 110 % is used as a threshold (Mulder and Schoonbeek, 2013). However, the RSI cannot alone determine whether market power is being exercised, only provide a condition for the possibility of market power.…”

“…A number of years ago, serious concerns were raised about the limited liquidity of this market and the ability of the incumbents to exert market power during peak hours (see Van Damme, 2005). Since then, the Dutch market has become more integrated with the neighbouring countries through both physical and virtual extensions of cross-border capacity (Mulder and Schoonbeek, 2013). Within the Dutch electricity market, the share of distributed generation has grown strongly to about 40%, according to Statistics Netherlands (CBS;…”

“…The contribution of decentralized production increased from 27% in 2007 to 31% in 2011 and the share of import was about 17% in both years. The intensity of competition in the Dutch electricity market grew over time as a result of the increase in generation capacity, in particular decentralized and more cross-border capacity (Mulder and Schoonbeek, 2013;Mulder, 2015). During the off-peak hours (10PM -9AM) 5 the imported energy takes care of about 27% of the total residual demand (excluding supply from decentralized production) and the six electricity producers account for 73%.…”

“…The regulatory should monitor the electricity market to evaluate the ability of market players for exercising market power [5]. For example, the level of competitiveness in the Dutch electricity market is studied over 2006-2011 in [6]. The regulatory evaluates the market power using some indices.…”
