Electricity Markets

Our key market initiatives to help inform the evolution of market design.

Evolution of the Electricity Market

To achieve our renewable ambitions, the electricity market for the island must develop. 

We have made recommendations on how the electricity market could evolve to efficiently operate the power system at 80% renewable electricity (RES-E).

The Single Electricity Market Committee is ultimately responsible for the electricity market design. We will implement the committee's decisions.
