Cross-Subsidies in the Electricity Sector [PDF]

open access: yesCompetition and Regulation in Network Industries, 2008
Most firms in the electricity sector are vertically integrated. Often these integrated firms are accused of using income generated in the regulated sector in order to cross-subsidize their unregulated activities. This cross-subsidization is said to distort the level-playing field and lead to an unfair competition between incumbent and entrants.
