Antitrust: avoid extending the liberalization of the energy market

“It is necessary to conclude the liberalization process of the energy markets within the set deadlines, avoiding further extensions”. Thus the president of the Antitrust Roberto Rustichelli. “The Authority – he says – has repeatedly reiterated that the advantages of liberalization for end consumers, even in terms of lower prices and consequent savings, will only be fully effective in a context of effective competition between operators”. At the same time, “only if consumers are aware and active in choosing the most convenient offers on the market can real competitive dynamics be triggered”.
“Competition – he added – has its roots in the principles of democracy and the overall freedom of the system. However, the action of the Antitrust Authority is not enough for the promotion of economic and social development along these lines. public willing to recognize itself in a monochromatic and open vision of the market, aware that competition may have initial costs for some but certainly generates benefits for all “.
