Abstract

A distinction has to be made between the application of price instruments on the markets for network services (retail markets) and price instruments on the markets for network infrastructure capacities (upstream markets). In this chapter it is assumed that free market entry is allowed on these markets and that the entrepreneurial search for price structures is not obstructed by regulatory interventions.

Due to the large number of atomistic suppliers, economies of scale are excluded.

This also holds for the general case of continuous time parameters (cf. Takayama, 1985, p. 683).

The introduction of track access charge systems was an immediate consequence of allowing competition on the tracks. Deutsche Bahn AG issued its first access pricing system on July 1, 1994 (cf. Knieps, 2005).

A (non-time based) congestion charge would still have to be levied, even if there was no change in capacity utilisation over time and no fluctuation in the level of the airport usage. For the detailed analysis of congestion charges see Chap. 3.

Directive 2009/12/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 2009 on airport charges, 14.3.2009, OJ L 70/11.
