EER Monthly July 2013

However much energy situations differ on the national level, the market problems show a lot of similarities. See Edward White’s overview of the electricity market in New Zealand, which is marred with uncertainty. One of these resemblances is the relationship between companies and governments. Companies reject a high degree of meddlesomeness, governments want to stay in control all the way. Sometimes it looks like a dog and cat fight with the customer-citizen mice in the middle, whom both parties say they love and are servicing. Maybe the two sides should transcend their working level and start talking on a higher stratum to find harmony in long term challenges that concern all and then descend to the problems of today instead of creating and maintaining a quarrelsome situation fuelled by actual irritations.
