3 - 2 - Market Power Study Potomac Economics has been engaged to:Potomac Economics has been engaged to: Perform an evaluation of market power related to ETI joining the SPP; and Perform an evaluation of market power related to ETI joining the SPP; and Identify mitigation options that would address any market power issues found. Identify mitigation options that would address any market power issues found. The study will address:The study will address: The market power requirements of Senate Bill 7 for the SPP to be a Qualified Power Region (“QPR”); as well as The market power requirements of Senate Bill 7 for the SPP to be a Qualified Power Region (“QPR”); as well as Local market power issues associated with serving load in the ETI area. Local market power issues associated with serving load in the ETI area. At the last stakeholder meeting, we described the analysis that we will perform to draw conclusions regarding the market power issues:At the last stakeholder meeting, we described the analysis that we will perform to draw conclusions regarding the market power issues: Market share analysis for the SPP region; Market share analysis for the SPP region; Two market concentration analyses for the ETI region; and Two market concentration analyses for the ETI region; and Two pivotal supplier analyses for the ETI region. Two pivotal supplier analyses for the ETI region.
