Any auctions (in <any commodity) that would work? We are trying to get back to key policy <makers mid-day on Monday. Yes, there are numerous default service auction models in operation or proposed, both in electricity and other utilities. The government of New South Wales in Australia is implementing a model similar to this. In Georgia, I think they recently had an auction to serve customers served by a gas retailer that went bust. Similar mechanisms have been used for years in the telecoms business for serving specific client bases, such as rural customers. Examples have been in Chile, and even in the U.S. (auctions for "universal service obligations"). We proposed a model for "third-party" default service standard supply for Ontario (working for Aleck Dadson of Enron Canada). This allowed the standard supply provider to meet its obligation by competitive means, including holding an auction. The idea was to provide customers hedging in a framework that allowed for competition in default service. Let me know if you want a briefing or futher info.
