Abstract
⺠We show the profit function of pivotal operators to be non-concave and unbounded. ⺠We propose a price-cap policy that foster pivotal operators to compete for quantity.⺠We apply our methodology to Enel and derive a price-cap for Italy. ⺠We find that vertical integration can be beneficial for moderating wholesale prices.
