One of Denmark's leading players, DK Benzin, has testified to the dramatic transformation of the fuel retailing market by predicting hundreds of sites will shut by 2007. In the aftermath of fierce price wars, and the government's support of decommissioning sites, closures seem inevitable. However, fuel retailers will now have the opportunity to focus their efforts on developing forecourt shops.

Dong, the leading gas and power producer in Denmark with an installed capacity of 5.9GW, is slated to be partially de-nationalized and become a listed company in 2007. However, the company's Achilles' heel may be that it is relying on its vertically integrated structure as a competitive advantage at a time when Brussels is seeking to break up integrated utilities to stimulate competition.

Elsam's board has spurned Vattenfall and thrown its weight behind a rival offer from the Danish state-owned DONG. If successful, this new entity would deliver on the government's desire to produce a national energy champion. However, shareholders are perhaps rightly unconvinced of the benefits of combining an integrated power utility and an upstream oil and gas company.

Danish-based Elsam is considering potential partners for a merger deal. If the company does not want to be subsumed into Vattenfall, it is right to consider combining with Copenhagen Energy. Such a move would achieve significant economies of scale in its residential customer base whilst retaining its local character.

The Nordic countries are currently seeking to fully integrate their grid network systems so that they operate under a single management. While a number of vertically integrated utilities elsewhere in Europe are also proposing to create an integrated, independent transmission system operator, they should pay heed to the developments in the Nordic market to better grasp the scale of such a task.

The end-user price for Finnish electricity customers has failed to track the fall in wholesale prices following last year's extremely high prices. The conditions that created the price peaks have now dissipated and customers need to be made more aware of this to help drive both switching and competition.

The move to improve service stations is a logical one. Indeed, as well as making the fuel outlets more appealing to women, the measures being taken are likely to please all customers.

With the lights going out in both Sweden and Denmark, politicians may now use this to serve their own political agendas. The reliability of the Scandinavian network has been exceptionally high, but one outage may spark debates that call into question not only energy policy and investment but also the closer integration of countries in Scandinavia and Europe.

Shell is to rename the 70 unmanned Metax petrol stations in Denmark Shell Express, committing itself to its automatic site format. This could prove a shrewd move as not only do unmanned sites significantly reduce the time it takes customers to fill their vehicle, but they provide an efficient alternative for over four in 10 of European motorists who visit petrol stations shops but only buy fuel.
