SUMMARY
On 30 November 2016, the Vice-President of the EU Commission for the Energy Union, Maroš Šefcovic, presented under the heading “Clean Energy for All Europeans – Unlocking Europe’s Growth Potential” the comprehensive set of policy initiatives and regulatory proposals commonly referred to as the “Winter Package”. The latter confirms the EU commitment to cut CO2 emissions by 40% by 2030, all the while boosting economic growth and employment. The three dominant themes of this effort are:
1. A new policy push and better framework conditions for energy efficiency improvements, in particular in the building sector;
2. A continued commitment to renewables with a view of creating a market capable of providing the significant amounts of flexibility necessary to accommodate them;
3. A focus on end-use consumers, who are expected to further decentralisation, to contain costs through competitive pressures and to provide flexibility through demand response.

The electricity sector plays a key role in the Winter Package. The latter contains in fact a proposal for a “Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on the Internal Market for Electricity”, which, if adopted, would amount to a Fourth Electricity Market Directive, setting a new framework for the European electricity sector. While it is too early to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the policy package, a number of key themes can be identified:
1. An increased focus on the market and regulatory framework evolutions to stimulate the development of flexibility through dispatchable capacity, interconnections, DSM and storage;
2. The recognition of a “residual” role for capacity mechanisms allowing for cross-border cooperation, whose details still need to be developed;
3. Governance and system management in the context of an emerging notion of European security of electricity supply. This includes strengthening the EU Agency for the Cooperation of Regulators (ACER) and a focus on regional system management;
4. The encouragement of increased investment in electricity transport and distribution networks, in particular cross-border interconnections.

While there is likely to be little disagreement on the rather broad overall objectives of the Winter Package, two key questions emerge:
a) Does the Winter Package provide a sufficiently concrete set of new policies to further decisively the environmental and economic sustainability of the European electricity sector, most notably in the area of investment?
b) Does the focus on top down harmonisation help or hinder the different initiatives of European market integration that are already under way being advanced by a multitude of actors?

This seminar of the Chaire European Electricity Markets (CEEM) will bring together leading experts from European institutions, industry and academe in order to discuss the impact that the Winter Package is likely to have and where the European electricity sector is likely to go from here.
