Markets & Regulations
The past two decades have seen an unprecedented move towards the liberalization and privatization of the energy sector. Governments, regulatory institutions and the industry itself are faced with the need to design and to implement new industry structures, competitive energy markets, and appropriate regulatory frameworks.
Careful analysis of the new environment and its impact on market participants has become an essential prerequisite for the successful operation of any actor in the deregulated energy industries.
Successful deregulated energy markets require well designed and carefully implemented industry structures and regulations. KEMA has been involved in all aspects of industry and market design, including the following:
- determination of general industry structure
- design and implementation of energy markets
- network access
- roles and functions of market actors, and
- establishment of system and market operators.
We are also one of the world’s leading consulting companies in developing technical and commercial rules for open access.
KEMA can advise clients in all economic and engineering related issues within power and gas markets worldwide. With our independent and expert advice, we have an excellent international reputation for effectively delivering pragmatic and practically oriented consultancy to our clients. The broad operational background of our consultants is unique. Beside the unique mix of expertise, in both economics and engineering, our team consists of experts who have previously worked for utilities and traders as well as regulators, governments or research institutions, in a variety of countries, across the whole spectrum of activities in the electricity and gas markets.
