Electricity is big business. Yet each country has a very different electricity market structure. The energy analysts at NRG Expert have researched each country’s electrical supply industry and summarized their findings in a 500+ page market research report.
The energy analysts at NRG Expert have published their findings in a report called the Electrical Supply Industry World Guidebook. This Guidebook reveals that while some country’s electricity market is heavily privatized with a high degree of technology, others are government led. In addition some countries have a single vertically integrated utilities supply while others are fragmented and rely on many different companies working seamlessly together.
The Guidebook highlights the four key areas of the electricity industry:
– electricity generation
– electricity transmission
– electricity distribution
– electricity supply
The report then looks in detail at each of these areas for the 196 countries it covers. The market research report also provides tables on the installed electricity capacity (MW) for each country and highlights the key electricity market facts .
The Electrical Supply Industry World Guidebook has been compiled from many sources over eleven years. Sources include the World Bank, IEA, International Energy Agency, IMF and many other energy trade associations, national electricity statistics, government departments and electrical utility reports.
The in-depth market research allows companies and governments to gain a global understanding of the electrical supply industry and understand the trends, developments and opportunities across the world. It provides vital statistics and information on each country’s electricity generation, electricity transmission grid and electricity production and supply.
