Discussion group on environmental policy instruments in latin american and european liberalised electricity markets

Objective

This proposal for a Concerted Action has as major objective the improvement of the design of policies for the promotion of environmentally friendly electricity systems in Europe and South America, while allowing for liberalisation and growth of this sector. Through a series of meetings, the knowledge and experiences from experts from different countries in these regions will be exchanged, and recommendations will be provided on the best practices to assess the environmental impact of liberalised electricity systems, to incorporate environmental aspects into electricity planning and operation, and to devise policy instruments for improving the environmental performance of liberalised electricity systems. The inclusion in the consortium of regulatory agencies from the countries implied will ensure an efficient feedback from the potential end-users of the conclusions of the Concerted Action, and a quick dissemination of the results
