Abstract

Digitalization shall spur the development of market mechanisms and competition, especially in retail electricity markets, by making information available to all stakeholders, including regulators and consumers. It will be difficult to implement initiatives to make sure consumer demands are met at all times without studying global practices of using unconventional contract structures in the energy sector and the impact of the energy transition on public relations. At the same time, the absence of an effective regulatory framework that would allow us to take full advantage of unconventional contract structures for their further application in the energy sector can result in technological inferiority in key areas of the smart energy sector in terms of both technology and standardization. As the Russian regulatory framework for the regulation of public relations using unconventional contract structures is still in its infancy, it makes sense to turn our attention to other countries’ distributed generation development regulation practices that gave impetus to change the industry and use digital platforms.
