The Italian Electricity Market arises from Legislative Decree no. 79 of 16 March
1999 (Legislative Decree 79/99), which transposed the European Directive on the
internal market in electricity (96/92/EC) into the national legislation.
As in other international experiences, the creation of a market responds to two
specific requirements:
• promoting competition in electricity generation, sale and purchase, under criteria
of neutrality, transparency and objectivity, through the creation of a marketplace;
• ensuring the economic management of an adequate availability of ancillary services.
The Electricity Market consists of the Spot Electricity Market (MPE), of the Platform
for physical delivery of financial contracts concluded on IDEX (CDE) and of the
Forward Electricity Market (MTE).
