Sustituibilidad de Energéticos y La Política (Des)Regulatoria del Gas Natural en Chile

Author

Abstract

La principal característica del mercado de Gas Natural en Chile es que nace prácticamente desregulado y la evolución de su estructura responde sólo a las fuerzas de mercado, explicándose por la participación casi exclusiva del sector privado. La regulación de la estructura es mínima y los precios no están regulados (con excepción de la zona Magallanes). Se establece que las empresas concesionarias de transporte y de distribución de Gas Natural tienen libertad para fijar sus precios, donde el único requisito es no discriminar entre clientes con características y consumos similares. En el caso del transporte rige además la obligación de acceso abierto. Teniendo en cuenta la caracterización del sector, se analizan los supuestos que sostendrían la política de ausencia de regulación de precios. Si ello se cumpliera, la determinación de precios competitivos en el mercado de Gas Natural estaría garantizada por la existencia de mercados de productos sustitutos competitivos, tanto por el lado de la oferta como por el lado de la demanda. Se analizan los energéticos sustitutos del Gas Natural y se evalúa la eficiencia de la política de precios libres en esta industria.
