Abstract

Ad oltre dieci anni dalla prima direttiva europea e mentre il mercato finale è arrivato alla sua apertura totale il bilancio delle liberalizzazioni sul piatto della concorrenza e della regolamentazione non è esaltante. Le Autorità incaricate di promuovere la concorrenza nei momenti cruciali non hanno preso le decisioni più adatte a contrastare le strategie degli incumbent, lasciando che il loro potere di mercato si rafforzasse. Le Autorità che dovevano mettere a punto la regolamentazione, tecnica ed economica, delle reti non hanno saputo conciliare perfettamente l’orientamento al mercato delle condizioni di accesso alle reti con il mantenimento in sicurezza dei sistemi di trasporto. Non avendo tratto insegnamenti dalle riforme inglesi, il confronto ex-post può solo dare risalto ai difetti di consistency ed ai problemi di concorrenza sul lato dell’offerta che affliggono in modo ormai cronico la regolazione di questi mercati in Europa e in Italia.
