This report details the opportunities for pan-European suppliers to use large multinational contracts as a vehicle to enter new markets. While all the potential is there for this to occur, widespread contracting in this manner is years away as large structural and market barriers remain for both buyers and suppliers.
Scope of this report
- an understanding of the structural barriers and the affect of market opening in allowing pan-European contracts.
- a profile of the UK based pan-European energy buyers.
- an assessment of the motivation of both suppliers and buyers to contract in a pan-European manner.
Research and analysis highlights
Different stages of market opening, combined with structural barriers prevent genuine EU-wide markets in energy from forming.
The EU25-wide market for multinational contracts could be as high as 400TWh of MEU power and 1,200TWh of non-residential gas volume.
Pan-European contracts are desired by both buyers and suppliers, however for very different reasons.
Key reasons to read this report
- understand the feasibility of pan-European contracts.
- quantify the scale of the UK's potential pan-European buyers
