  • The Proposed Takeover of Hyder Plc by Western Power Distribution Limited
    THE PROPOSED TAKEOVER OF HYDER PLC BY WESTERN POWER DISTRIBUTION LIMITED A JOINT CONSULTATION PAPER BY THE DIRECTORS GENERAL OF OFWAT AND OFGEM PART ONE: ISSUES RAISED BY THE PROPOSED TAKEOVER PART TWO: BACKGROUND PART THREE: ISSUES FOR CONSIDERATION BY DGWS PART FOUR: ISSUES FOR CONSIDERATION BY DGGEM PART ONE: ISSUES RAISED BY THE PROPOSED TAKEOVER 1. On 31 May 2000, Western Power Distribution Limited (“WPDL”) announced that it intended to make a cash offer for the entire ordinary share capital of Hyder plc (“Hyder”). A copy of WPDL’s Stock Exchange announcement is attached. Hyder is already subject to a recommended cash offer from St David Capital plc and a joint consultation paper setting out the issues arising from that offer was issued on 28 April 2000. WPDL has sought, but not received, a recommendation from Hyder’s board. It intends to continue discussions with Hyder and is actively seeking the recommendation of the Hyder board for its offer. 2. Hyder is a multi-utility company; it is the holding company of both Dwr Cymru Cyfyngedig (“Dwr Cymru”) and South Wales Electricity plc (“Swalec”), companies which are regulated by the Director General of Water Services (“DGWS”) and the Director General of Electricity Supply (“DGES”) respectively. This joint consultation paper discusses the regulatory issues raised by the WPDL offer and seeks the views of interested parties. 3. Hyder is believed to be the largest private sector employer in Wales. In 1996 Hyder purchased Swalec. This was followed by a more recent sale of the electricity retail supply business of Swalec to British Energy.

  • Optimal Non-Linear Income Tax When Highly Skilled Individuals Vote with Their Feet
    Incorporating the Price of Quality in Efficiency Analysis: the Case of Electricity Distribution Regulation in the UK William Yu, Tooraj Jamasb and Michael Pollitt July 2007 CWPE 0736 and EPRG 0713 Incorporating the Price of Quality in Efficiency Analysis: The Case of Electricity Distribution Regulation in the UK William Yu *, Tooraj Jamasb, Michael Pollitt Abstract Efficiency analysis of electricity distribution networks is often limited to technical or cost efficiency measures. However, some important non-tradable aspects of their service such as quality of service and network energy losses are generally not part of the analysis. A regulatory concern is that technical efficiency can be achieved at the expense of these measures as well as allocative efficiency. Valuation of service quality for inclusion in regulatory models is particularly difficult. This paper presents an approach to measure and incorporate service quality and energy losses in analysis of technical and allocative efficiency of the utilities. We calculate technical and allocative efficiency of the 14 distribution networks in the UK between 1990/91 and 2003/04 using the Data Envelopment Analysis technique. We find that efficiency measures improved during the first (1990/91-1994/95) and second (1995/96-1999/00) distribution price control reviews and exhibited a slight decline during the third (2000/01-2004/05) review period. We find relatively low allocative efficiency - i.e. a mismatch in allocating resources among expenditures, service quality, and energy losses. The results suggest that the utilities may not be sufficiently incentivised to achieve socially optimal input bundles under the current incentive scheme. Keywords: efficiency, Data Envelopment Analysis, electricity, quality of service, willingness-to-pay.

Registered in England No. 02366937 SUMMARY The North Wales Wind Farms Connection Project is a major electrical infrastructure development project, involving several wind farm developers and the local Distribution Network Operator – SP Manweb plc (SP Manweb). The development of on-shore wind generation in Wales is guided by the Welsh Government’s energy strategy, initially published in 2003. In their Technical Advice Note (TAN) 8: renewable energy (2005) the Welsh Government identified 7 Strategic Search Areas (SSAs) as potential locations for wind generation, of which area A is in North Wales. During the past 20 years, approximately 220 MW of wind generation (both onshore and offshore) have been connected to the SP Manweb distribution network in North Wales. Within the TAN 8 SSA A, SP Manweb is currently contracted to connect a further four wind farms[1] which have received planning consent and total 170 MW of generation. SP Manweb has a statutory duty to offer terms to connect new generating stations to its distribution system.
