No Slide TitleSetting the Stage
Energy resources and industries have been considered strategic and/or national
Energy industries have been vertically integrated
But, there is now deregulation / restructuring
Fossil fuels have been the major source for generating energy, but
These resources are increasingly concentrated in politically sensitive parts of the world
Burning of these fuels are increasingly blamed for a variety of environmental problems
UHCBA Energy Institute *
State of the World
So, how do you address environmental concerns in a more competitive industry?
Fossil fuels-based technologies have cost advantages to “clean” alternatives
Developing economies want to use these technologies and their fossil resources
Developed economies do not want to risk slow-down with heavy regulation

Natural Resource Economics
Instead of competitive profit max rule of P=MC, we have P=MC+OC
AB = user cost (Hotelling rent)

Natural Resource Economics
The behavior of this rent over time is important: a barrel of oil not produced today will be worth something tomorrow.
What is, then, the profit maximizing resource extraction pattern?
Output will be decreasing over time as the price increases over time.
Hotelling rule: the rent will increase at the rate of interest (discount rate)

A Question of Perspective
Short-term perspective: higher price now is better (shared by companies and countries)
Long-term perspective: can live with lower prices for a while (should make sense for Saudi Arabia, but for companies?)

Ownership/
Control
(Hypothesis)
Commercial trade regimes can create pressure for monopoly “devolution” and emergence of competition. The flow is generally from trade laws, to regulation to open access; with each step, monopoly power weakens. An opposing force is the strength of state ownership/control, which can act to preserve monopoly power. This happens in all contexts -- state, provincial and national.

Notable examples of backpedaling on energy sector reform are found
in Russia and other NIS
in Latin America
in the U.S. and Canada (electricity)
Where energy is considered a “free good,” the transition is more tenuous

A, natural monopoly outcome, is what we want to avoid
B (P=MC) is equivalent to perfect competition, but negative profits
C yields zero economic profit no incentive to maintain service quality
D provides a positive return: cost-of-service (or, rate-of-return regulation)
