Although Spain's solar market was once at the forefront of worldwide activity, a change in its feed-in tariff subsidy has sent the sector into a downward spiral, leaving its future in the balance as solar manufacturers cut production and staffing levels. As a result, the global solar market faces a significant setback instead of making the necessary contributions towards the EU's 20-20-20 targets.

Having been forced to sign a letter of credit from the government in 2003 to remain solvent, British Energy (BE) was obliged to sell forward 96% of its total output to the end of this winter. With the company contracted to continue selling its power at the low prices of the time, rising wholesale prices and underproduction have left BE selling at a large deficit and in ever deepening trouble.

The UK government's sale of its stake in British Energy looks set to become increasingly protracted. While EdF remains the strong favorite to acquire the assets should a sale proceed, a potential minority stake for Centrica would play well politically. Without successful completion of a sale, British nuclear credibility will remain in question.

The sale of British Energy is set to become increasingly protracted following rejection of a GBP12.4 billion bid from Electricite de France, as part of a joint venture with Centrica which was looking to acquire a 20-25% stake. While Electricite de France remains well placed to acquire the assets, Centrica's role could now be in danger.

The UK government is planning to divest its stake in British Energy. Consequently, a number of UK and European energy players have expressed an interest in buying the utility, as its assets can be used for future nuclear build. Although the acquisition may result in market consolidation, the real result would be increased electricity generation capacity and a greater security of supply in the UK.

Following a recent run of bad news, things have not improved for British Energy, as outages have left only one of the company's plants operating at full capacity. The reactor problems are likely to have wider-reaching implications too, as the impact of the outage reverberates through the UK energy industry, with both short- and long-term consequences.

The spat between bondholders and shareholders has been initiated by UK hedge fund Polygon, which is fighting British Energy's [BGY.L] proposed restructuring plan. Although Polygon's arguments have some credibility, they are destined to fall on deaf ears. Support for the restructuring is widespread and will not be swayed by Polygon's efforts.

British Energy [BGY.L], the beleaguered power generator, claims to "welcome" the European Commission's inquiry into the GBP5 billion rescue package put together by the UK government. However, the outcome is by no means certain, and the company needs to show that it is committed to getting back on its own feet as quickly as possible.<BR />

British Energy continues to struggle, announcing huge losses due to write-downs. Bankruptcy seems unlikely as this would cause chaos in the power market and so the government appears to have little choice but to continue throwing good money after bad.<BR /><BR />

British Energy's flirtation with bankruptcy in 2003 led to the government forcing it to sell all its power forward at a time of low power prices, resulting in it not benefiting from a recovery in power prices over 2004/05. This has cost it roughly GBP979 million in missed profits, and it is only now that its contracted position will enable it to benefit from the spike in wholesale power prices.
