RECERCAT author Costa, M. Teresa (Maria Teresa), 1951- author Trujillo-Baute, Elisa 2017-11-07T11:01:38Z2019-09-30T05:10:15Z2015-092017-11-07T11:01:38Z The feed-in tariff regulation is the widest spread instrument used to promote electricity generation from renewable energy sources in the EU, with the costs of resources devoted to this promotion usually being borne by final consumers. Two components of the electricity retail price are expected to be influenced by the feed-in tariff regulation: the incentive to those firmsproducing electricity fromrenewable energy sources and thewholesale price of electricity. In this studywe analyze the effects that the feed-in tariff regulation has on the electricity retail price for industrial consumers. Weestimate the relative intensity of the impact of the cost of support electricity generation under the feed-in tariff and the electricity wholesale price on the Spanish industrial retail price. Special attention is devoted to technology-specific considerations, as well as short and long run effects. The results show that there is not a strong link between the retail and wholesale market for Spanish industrial consumers. Moreover, the results indicate that an increase of solar generation leads to a higher increase in the industrial retail price than in the case of a proportional increase of wind generation. This suggests that, when evaluating the feed-in tariff regulation impact on the retail price, the cost of incentives effect prevails over the wholesale price effect, and this is stronger for solar than for wind generation. cc-by-nc-nd (c) Elsevier Ltd, 2015 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Aranzels de duanes Política de preus Producció d'energia elèctrica Tariff Prices policy Electric power production Retail price effects of feed-in tariff regulation info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion
