Many states – including European Union (EU) Member States – subsidise energy producers in order to guarantee the uninterrupted availability of affordable electricity. This book presents the first in-depth examination of how these so-called capacity mechanisms are addressed in EU law and how they affect the functioning of the EU energy markets.
- the structure and functioning of the EU electricity markets;
- EU’s competence to address security of supply and Member States’ margin of discretion;
- sector-specific rules for security of supply;
- legal conditions for subsidising generation adequacy;
- capacity remuneration under the EU State aid regime;
- free movement rules that address generation adequacy measures;
- balancing different interests of EU energy law in the context of generation adequacy; and
- the requirement of proportionality in State intervention to ensure generation adequacy.
