A University of Technology lecturer has urged caution on any possible move to liberalise the distribution of energy.
Darron Thomas, a specialist in competition in markets, told a Forum last week, that liberation of the distribution market might not automatically result in lower costs to consumers.
“We should take the experience of the countries around the world that have tried to deregulate and have failed. From those experiences, we could learn what not to do. From the experience in England, we could learn something about what to do,” Thomas said.
