"Intervening in the existing European electricity market design as a way to cope with the current price crisis is likely to be inappropriate, as it would require altering a very sophisticated set of rules which took more than a decade to be agreed upon," Nicolò Rossetto, a research fellow at the Florence School of Regulation in Italy, told EUobserver.

Nicolò Rossetto, a research fellow at the Florence School of Regulation, told Euronews that there were signs "a few months ago" that prices would go up and that this crisis could last throughout the winter.

The ‘windfall charge’ imposed on Spain’s four largest electricity companies risks having far more negative consequences than the infamous 2013 law that retroactively changed the country’s green energy subsidies, argues Christopher Jones.

Ne è convinta Ilaria Conti, responsabile gas presso la Florence School of Regulation, secondo cui il documento pubblicato dalla Commissione europea prevede molti possibili strumenti per la mitigazione del costo dell’energia.

„Mit diesen Maßnahmen unterstützt die Regierung vor allem Familien und kleineUnternehmen, die den Preisanstieg von Strom und Gas am stärksten zu spüren bekommen“,erklärt Nicolò Rossetto, Energieexperte der Florence School of Regulation, im Gespräch mitWELT. Beispielrechnungen zufolge werden die Gas- und Stromrechnungen normalerFamilien über das gesamte Jahr trotzdem noch um etwa einige Hundert Euro steigen, dieRegierungshilfen dämpfen den Anstieg also nur ab und lassen ihn nicht ganz verschwinden.

In a paper titled New Transactions in Electricity: Peer-to-Peer and Peer-to-X published in the latest issue of Economics of Energy & Environmental Policy (EEEP), Jean-Michel Glachant and Nicolò Rossetto, both at the Florence School of Regulation (FSR), point out, “Peer-to-peer (P2P) and peer-to-x (P2X) open up a new world of transactions in the electricity sector. We have already seen in the past business-to-business (B2B) with the wholesale markets, opening around 1990, and business-to-consumer (B2C) with the retail markets, opening around 2000.”
