Refinancing Spain’s Electricity Sector
August 2, 2011
Energy Minister, Miguel Sebastián’s announcement yesterday that his Ministry will not put forward a new regulatory regime for wind energy before the end of his term on the 20th of November means that Spanish energy policy will not be set until a new Government takes office on the 1st of January 2012. So what might energy policy look like as of 2012?Judging from what PP party members have told me in the past a new PP government may mean a refinancing of Spain’s electricity sector.
