Vertical Separation of the monopolist of the electric sector (in the next slides Company “X”)

• The Bersani Act provides for the activity of distribution through concessions released by the Minister of Productive Activity until 2030

• The Authority for Electric Energy and Gas was established by the Law n. 481/1995 It is an Indipendent Authority For Regulation and Control

• Introduction of the “single autorization” (Law n. 55/ 2002)

• Unified Act on the Electric Market approved in 2003
