The Nordic and Baltic Utility Markets 2002 Report presents the Nordic Baltic energy and environmental services markets. This utilities market research report discusses how historically, the Nordic Baltic Region was, and is again becoming one trade zone. It provides details over the long history of cooperation between the Nordic countries in the energy sector and how they are increasingly integrating their electricity systems and trade. The three Baltic countries are increasingly plugging into the Nordic system and the electricity systems are being linked through Nordel and Baltrel and inter-connected with the RussianUnified Energy System, together with Poland and Germany. Details of all these movements plus discussion over the likely integration of the electricity grid encircling the Baltic is provided within the Nordic and Baltic Utility Markets Report.
Key findings within this utilities market research report include that Norway is the fourth largest natural gas exporter in the world but as the sixth largest hydro generator it is an insignificant consumer of gas. That Sweden is the eighth hydro electricity producer but has no gas and imports very little. The large Nordic energy companies have growing international ambitions and they have been world leaders in the deregulation of their energy markets. We show that Baltic countries were also moving in this direction as they seeked to qualify for accession to the EU.
The water and waste sector has different drivers, and we explore all of these within the Nordic and Baltic utility markets report. In an environmentally conscious society with a strong tradition of public and national ownership we note that the water and waste utilities are perceived as public assets to be funded by the state and to serve the people. The Baltic Sea is a pollution victim and the large Nordic utilities are forming PUPs (Public-Public Partnerships) with Baltic water utilities to transfer their expertise and to reduce pollution pouring into the Baltic Sea in their common interest. There is strong resistance to privatisation.
The Nordic and Baltic Utility markets Report is your guide to a vibrant market, including utility market analysis, industries and the players. This utilities market research report outlines the three sectors and provides essential information for any company involved in any of these four markets.
