Internationally the electricity energy industry has pursued common objectives regarding open market structures. These market objectives are:
- (i) increasing competition for the generation segment;
- (ii) enhancing private investments for expansion;
- (iii) providing transmission open access;
- (iv) responding to new regulations and operational schemes;
- and (v) providing freedom of choice for consumer segment.
These objectives are being implemented differently for the wholesale and retail segments, and there remains a need to develop better processes to foster expanded access to and use of demand response.
