Reportlinker Adds Energy Market Landscape: India

http://www.reportlinker.com/p0126720/Reportlinker-Adds-Energy-Market-Landscape-India.html

Introduction 

Evolving competitive dynamics are rapidly and significantly changing the face of
the gas and power markets in the Asia Pacific region. As such, a timely and
broadly based understanding of the market landscape is vital for players
throughout the value chain. Central to this is an understanding of the exact
stage of competitive development reached in each market, and how it is likely to
change. 

Scope 

*Up-to-date insight on market structures, regulatory developments, supply and
demand balances and asset developments 

*Insight into current levels of gas and power competitive intensity benchmarked
against 12 other Asia Pacific markets 

*Forecasts of how the nine metrics making up the competitive intensity scores
will change by 2012. 

Highlights 

The MCI scores draw on nine underlying metrics grouped into three categories:
Market Framework (Regulatory Effectiveness; Pricing Regime; Ease of Third Party
Access), Supplier Push (Wholesale Fragmentation, Retail Fragmentation, Traded
Market Maturity), and Customer Pull (Access to Market Information, Consumer
Representation, Propensity to Switch) 

Each of the Energy Market Landscape series provides a profile of both the
relevant gas and power market. Issues examined include regulatory structures,
player strategies and supply/demand dynamics. 

Reasons to Purchase 

*Obtain up-to-date, relevant and standardized information on the Asia Pacific
energy markets from a single source 

*Have a logical framework to monitor market developments and emerging trends,
identify opportunities and plan strategies accordingly 

*Assess current and future gas and power market competitive environments by
gaining insight into factors driving market competitiveness.

Competitive Intensity Analysis Overview 20 

Datamonitor's MCI Index offers a robust framework for measuring the development
of energy Market Competitive Intensity 20 

The MCI Index shows how competitive a particular market is. This has
applications for both new entrants seeking to enter the market, and established
players and former monopoly incumbents seeking to defend their market share from
new entrants. 20 

The MCI Index assesses markets as they stood in early 2009 and forecasts
conditions likely to be prevailing in 2012. 20 

The MCI assessment draws on nine underlying metrics grouped into three broad
clusters: Market framework; Supplier Push; Customer Pull 21 

Each of the nine pillars has an assessment scale to allow for the comparison of
diverse markets (see appendix for more details) 22 

Gas Market Competitive Intensity 23 

The Indian gas market shows a strong increase in its score over the forecast
period 23 

The Indian gas market continues its transition towards a more market driven
structure 24 

Although improving, India's gas Market Framework factors will remain modest 24 

Effectiveness of Regulator [2009: 5/10 2012: 6/10] 24 

Ease of Third Party Access [2009: 7/10 2012: 7/10] 25 

Pricing Regime [2009: 3/10 2012: 4/10] 25 

Decreased wholesale fragmentation drives the Supplier Pull metrics higher over
the forecast period 25 

Wholesale Market Fragmentation [2009: 2.5/10 2012: 3.5/10] 25 

Retail Market Fragmentation [2009: 2.5/10 2012: 4/10] 25 

Traded Market Maturity [2009: 5/10 2012: 7/10] 25 

Consumer Pull metrics remain weak 26 

Access to Market Information and Assistance [2009: 2.5/10 2012: 3.5/10] 26 

Consumer Representation [2009: 2.5/10 2012: 3/10] 26 

Propensity to Switch [2009: 0.1/10 2012: 1.5/10] 26 

Electricity Market Competitive Intensity 27 

By 2012, two off India's power scores are in the upper half of the scoring scale
27 

India's power score is supported by particularly strong Market Framework metrics
28 

Market Framework scores remain largely at the upper end of the scale 28 

Effectiveness of Regulator [2009: 7/10 2012: 8/10] 28 

Ease of Third Party Access [2009: 6/10 2012: 7/10] 29 

Pricing Regime [2009: 3/10 2012: 3/10] 29 

Supplier Push metrics show some degree of development over the forecast period
29 

Wholesale Market Fragmentation [2009: 3/10 2012: 4/10] 29 

Retail Market Fragmentation [2009: 2/10 2012: 3/10] 29 

Traded Market Maturity [2009: 3/10 2012: 5/10] 29 

Customer Pull metrics outperform those seen in some other parts of Asia 29 

Access to Market Information and Assistance [2009: 2.5/10 2012: 4.5/10] 29 

Consumer Representation [2009: 2.5/10 2012: 3/10] 30 

Propensity to Switch [2009: 1/10 2012: 2/10] 30 

Power sector competitive intensity will be similar to that seen in gas 31
