Thesis IMPACTO EN LA ESTRUCTURA DEL MERCADO DE GENERACIÓN ELÉCTRICA POR UN INCREMENTO EN LA PENETRACIÓN DE GAS NATURAL LICUADO EN LA MATRIZ ENERGÉTICA DE CHILE(2016) Subiabre Prato, Gastón René; Aguirre Leo, Francisco; Departamento de Industrias; Mancilla Ayancán, Marco; Agüero Vargas, FranciscoLiquefied natural gas emerged as an alternative fuel for viable electrical generation after natural gas restrictions from Argentina and all subsequent suspension of supply. Later, in the context of the Energy Agenda of Chile, she was raised as able to replace diesel as fuel for electricity generation and a key element to reduce marginal power generation costs, giving it a leading role in the future energy matrix of Chile.In the present study sought to identify the level of penetration that would liquefied natural gas as fuel for electricity generation in a horizon of 10 years. For this, the power generation market in Chile was analyzed for the development of generation technologies, such as structural aspects that characterize it, analyzing the possible existence of anticompetitive practices that may be present and would affect the degree of competition in this market.There are numerous projects of generationthat are intensive in natural gas, which is in doubt its actual concretion, considering the increase in electricity demand, a single interconnected system, a new law on electricity transmission and future generation costs, among others.This study attempted to identify those variables that could be critical to identify the actual development of intensive power generation liquefied natural gas, developing scenarios based on these variables and thus conclude the degree of penetration that could have liquefied natural gas and therefore also the current and future regasification plants in Chile.
