Abstract

Genoese gives insight into the drivers of gas-fired power generation in today’s European electricity system to explain its potential future role. In his analysis of recent developments, he focuses on three elements: (1) the competition between coal and gas in power generation, (2) the policy push for renewables and (3) the mechanics of pricing power. Genoese then explores the possible implications for future gas consumption for generating power. He concludes with a critical comparison of existing gas consumption scenarios made by the industry and the European Commission.
