Introduction: The Internal Energy Market: Redefining Objectives

  • Peter Cameron

    Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter (peer-reviewed) › peer-review

    Abstract

    After introducing sweeping EU legislation to establish a single market in energy, the EU has struggled to take the necessary steps to complete this process. By examining reports and other published documentation from a wide variety of bodies such as the EU Audit Committee and the various regulatory associations, this article identifies several reasons behind this failure. The most significant of these is the conflict between the single market project and the project to transition the EU to a low carbon economy status. It concludes that genuine completion is now highly improbable.
