If you have a wind farm, you can either choose (once a year) to sell your output at a fixed price (the feed-in tariff), which is set at 80-90% of the regulated retail price, or to sell your power on the wholesale market (getting the market price), in which case you get an additional premium equal to 50% of the regulated retail tariff (or just under 5c/kWh).

Fine.

Would you agree then that retail price per unit (kWh) is fixed by regulators by EU nation-state, i.e. "regulated" as opposed to "deregulated" profit potential of a utility, ergo utility holding company.

I flatter myself in believing that you recall my interest in legitimate price fixing across the US.

But you may have investigated what legal mechanisms EU legislature and judiciary have enacted to enforce universal prix fixe or not.

If you are interested in practicable methods of "nationalizing" commercial markets.

Diversity is the key to economic and political evolution.
