| Market reform is a major practical issue in the development of China’s electric power industry,and the establishment and improvement of market supervision mechanism is an important element in this issue.China’s electricity market regulatory mechanism has been adjusted several times in history,the regulatory agencies have also been restructured several times,however,the actual effect remains disappointing,multi-party management causes problems such as insufficient market vitality and weak market binding force,and the regulatory system urgently needs to be further improved.Some public management theories fit well with the research about improving electric power market regulation.Among them,holistic governance theory emphasizes public demand as the core orientation,which is consistent with the goal of serving people’s livelihood in public infrastructure undertakings such as electric power,and market failure theory can guide the government’s intervention in the market and help solve the problems caused by the external action,such as the inversion of coal prices and electricity shortage in recent years.Research on market regulation of power grid enterprise using relevant public management theories is significant to restraining the behavior of market players,improving government regulation,and promoting the overall development of the electric industry.This paper takes Tianjin as an example,chooses the perspective of governmental supervision,studies the problem of supervision mechanism for power grid enterprise,which is the main part of electric power market,and collects the opinions and suggestions of different groups such as social people and industry experts on power supply service of power grid enterprise and related market supervision by means of data collation,questionnaire survey and expert interview.The problems of current governmental supervision are analyzed and summarized in terms of working ideas,organizational system,technical means and institutional guarantee.The characteristics of several more mature international electric power regulation models are compared and contrasted,and the experience that can be learned from them is taken into account to draw inspiration from China’s actual situation.Finally,based on the interview opinions of industry experts,this paper proposes the core objectives and key requirements for the improvement of the market supervision system,and explains the methods about adjusting government regulatory functions,coordinating regulatory work mechanisms,and focusing on key regulatory contents.The core process of the study is based on field interviews and research,which is closer to the actual situation of power grid enterprise and related market operation,and the conclusions obtained are of practical significance,helping to promote further improvement of the market supervision system of power grid enterprise and ensure the sustainable and healthy development of the power industry. |
