摘要:In this paper the authors first analyse the readiness of electricity consumers for increased competition between the electricity suppliers and study their expectations regarding additional provision of electricity (non-)related services and products. The authors focus on such expectations of household customers and define main determinants of consumer choices by analysing demand and consumers’ willingness to switch electricity supplier and willingness to pay. The authors then analyse the ability of existing electricity distribution companies for operating in a more competitive environment. They show how the differences in performance and efficiency affect their ability to operate in a more competitive environment.
