CIEP Energy Paper: “Harvesting Transition? Energy Policy Cooperation or Competition around the North Sea”

February 1, 2012. The Northwest European electricity markets are increasingly becoming intertwined with the advance of the internal market. This implies that national fuel mix policies increasingly have cross-national implications. The German decision to phase out nuclear energy has made this crystal clear. Adding more renewable energy to the electricity system intensifies the need for coordination between the Northwest European countries. With the Pentalateral Forum in mind, we have distinguished five different options with an increasing level of coordination, which we would like to bring to the attention of Northwest European policy-makers.

CIEP Report: “A new EU Gas Security of Supply Architecture”

January 12, 2012.

As part of a four-party project (with FEEM, the Loyola de Palacio Chair in Florence and Wilton Park) on a new EU Gas security of Supply Architecture, a CIEP-workshop was held in July 2011. The “invitation-only” workshop discussed issues on the global gas market setting and its consequences for the EU gas supply perspectives, on the infrastructure challenges accommodating those (external) supplies, and on the market and regulatory designs that might be needed in that context.

Wind and Gas, Back-up or Back-out, “That is the Question”

January 3, 2012. The focus of this study is to explore the effect that the deployment of a large share of wind energy has on the Northwest European power generation mix in the current market circumstances. Natural gas is often mentioned as a suitable partner for wind. This paper tries to substantiate and quantify the current and potential relationship between gas and wind in Northwest European electric power supply in the context of the transition towards a low-carbon energy economy.
