Abstract :
In electricity markets, distribution tariffs are controlled by regulatory bodies to balance interests of supply companies and energy users. Improvement of supply quality can be achieved by the adequate regulation in which distribution companies have incentives to improve the quality of supply. We deal with the incentive method applied in Victoria (Australia) analyzing its impact on distribution tariffs.
