Global energy wholesale market trends Key challenges in the power and utilities sector

Energy wholesale markets are highly dynamic – companies, regulators and policy-makers in the power and utilities sector face challenges on national, regional and international levels.

► Almost all activities in the power and utilities sector are significantly affected by the volume and value of demand and supply in energy commodities.

► Energy wholesale markets around the globe – where demand and supply meet – are evolving at different speeds, as they are subjected to worldwide market dynamics.

► Energy commodity risks must be systematically analyzed, reported and mitigated in the long, mid and short term.

► Depending on the stage of development and specific national issues, energy wholesale markets are governed by diverse regulations (e.g., climate change, and commercial and financial markets regulations).

► Energy wholesale market dynamics are accompanied, and often driven, by the evolution of the regulatory context.

► Companies in the power and utilities sector must develop and maintain methods and systems to ensure compliance with current and future regulations.

► Energy wholesale market dynamics can influence the actions of participants within the power and utilities sector, as they work to mitigate commodity risks, achieve compliance and pursue their corporate goals.

► Evolving regulatory contexts define the development of market model frameworks. ► Policy-makers and regulators must continuously evolve regulations to meet political goals

regarding security of supply, energy economy, internationalization and environmental impact.
