Competencia vía funciones de oferta en el mercado español de producción de energía eléctrica

Abstract

El alto grado de concentración del mercado español de producción de energía eléctrica y la escasa interconexión de la red existente pone en cuestión el impacto de la liberalización sobre los precios de la energía eléctrica a corto y a medio plazo. Cuando las empresas compiten vía funciones de oferta cualquier precio entre el precio de equilibrio de Coumot y el precio competitivo puede sustentarse como un equilibrio. Así, aunque la entrada de nuevas empresas en el sector reduce y desplaza hacia el origen el conjunto de precios de equilibrio, su efecto final sobre el precio es ambiguo. La tradición de actuación coordinada entre las empresas del sector sugiere que los equilibrios que resulten han de ser inmunes a desviaciones creíbles de coaliciones. Dada de la forma de las funciones de costes de las empresas eléctricas y la demanda de energía eléctrica, el análisis del mercado revela que el precio de Coumot es el único que puede sustentarse como un equilibrio en funciones de oferta a prueba de coaliciones. Por consiguiente, es de esperar que a corto y medio plazo el precio de la electricidad sea substancialmente superior al precio competitivo.
