Summary

Introduction

Datamonitor's Market Competitive Intensity Index (MCI) is a robust framework for measuring and benchmarking the development of competitiveness and market conditions in a range of gas and electricty markets. The MCI assessment draws on nine underlying metrics grouped into three broad clusters: Market framework; Supplier Push and Customer Pull.

Scope

Insight into the current levels of competitiveness in the gas and power markets of the EU 27 and 6 related markets. Analysis of the commercial opportunities and threats in the selected markets both currently and in 2010. A benchmarking of the factors driving competition and market entry in the gas and power sectors of the selected markets.

Highlights

Datamonitor's MCI Index offers a robust framework for measuring the development of utility Market Competitive Intensity. MCI scores are calculated using two different methods. The first the simple weighted average (additive) measure shows overall competitive intensity. The second the multipliative method is more complex. It prevents markets with an overly wide spread of underlying raw scores from exerting undue influence over or skewing the final result.

Reasons to Purchase

Assess the competitive environments of gas and power markets both now and in the future. Gain insight into value chain factors driving market competitiveness and how each individual part of the chain will evolve as competition develops. Screen future market entry plans against the MCI scores to highlight key areas of potential risk and opportunity. .

Summary
Analysis
- Introduction: Datamonitor's Mci Index Offers A Robust Framework for Measuring The Development of Energy Market Competitive Intensity
- The Mci Index Shows How Attractive A Particular Market Is to New Entrants in Terms of The Competitive Environment
- The Mci Assessment Draws on Nine Underlying Metrics Grouped into Three Broad Clusters: Market Framework; Supplier Push; Customer Pull
- The Mci Index Measures Competitive Intensity in Eu 27 and 6 Related Markets
- The Mci Index Assesses Markets as They Stood in Early 2008 and Forecasts Conditions Likely to Be Prevailing Three Years after Full Market Opening
- Each of The Nine Pillars Has An Assessment Scale to Allow for The Comparison of Diverse Markets (See Appendix for More Details)
- Two Differing Overall Mci Scores Are Calculated to Ensure Full Clarity of Results
- A Simple Weighted Average (Additive) Measure Shows Overall Competitive Intensity
- A Weighted Multiple (Multiplicative) Measure Shows Overall Competitive Intensity
- The Mci Framework Has A Number of Applications for Your Organization
- Context: Cyprus's Gas and Power Competitiveness Remains Modest
- Cyprus's Ranking Changes Only Slightly over The Forecast Period
- A Gas Market Will Not Emerge in Cyprus during The Forecast Period
- Power Mci: Cyprus's Power Market Achieves Only A Modest Score
- Market Framework Scores Will Remain Modest in 2010
- Effectiveness of Regulator [2008: 3/10 2010: 5/10]
- Ease of Third Party Access [2008: 2/10 2010: 3.5/10]
- Effectiveness of Balancing and Data Transfer [2008: 2/10 2010: 4/10]
- Eac Monopoly Drags The Supplier Push Metrics down
- Wholesale Market Fragmentation [2008: 1/10 2010: 3/10]
- Retail Market Fragmentation [2008: 3/10 2010: 4/10]
- Traded Market Maturity [2008: 0/10 2010: 1/10]
- Customer Pull Metrics Are Very Much at The Lower End of The Scale and Are Likely to Remain So in July 2010
- Access to Market Information and Assistance [2008: 1.5/10 2010: 2.5/10]
- Consumer Representation [2008: 0/10 2010: 1/10]
- Propensity to Switch [2008: 0/10 2010: 1/10]
- The Current Market Structure Means That This Metric Is Redundant until after The End of The Derogations
- Gas Mci: Cyprus Does Not Currently Have A Gas Market
- Cyprus Does Not Currently Have A Gas Market
- Outlook: Commercial Opportunities for New Entrants Are Unlikely to Be Found in Cyprus
- Competitive Intensity Remains Very Limited in The Cypriot Energy Sector
- Power Scores
- Gas Scores
- Commercial Opportunity Lies in The Generation Sector
- New Market Entrant Opportunities, Power
- Cyprus Electricity Production Is Currently Dependent on Oil Fired Power Plants. since 2005, Eac Began Tenders for The Construction of Gas Fired Capacity. However, The Small Size of The Market Combined with The Various Barriers to Entry Will Lead Potential Investors to See Cyprus as A Lower Priority Investment Target
