TELECOMPLUS | THE UTILITY WAREHOUSE

SIX years after the frenzied bidding for licences to operate 3G mobile phone services, Britain’s telecoms companies will return to the auction table this week. Companies such as BT and Cable & Wireless will take on mobile operators including O2 in a spectrum auction that could raise millions of pounds for the Treasury.

It will also begin a series of spectrum sell-offs by the telecoms watchdog of a total of more than 400 megahertz of prime spectrum.
The sell-offs — more than 12 are pencilled in for between now and 2010 — could raise tens or even hundreds of billions of pounds for the Chancellor’s coffers.
The auctions could also lead to the introduction of exciting new technologies, from high-speed mobile broadband to mobile television.
The “starter” auction, on Thursday, is for the spectrum band 1781.7-1785MHz paired with 1876.7-1880MHz. It is ideally used for “low-power” or short-range mobile services. It could be used to set up special mobile networks on university campuses, for example, or within office buildings or shopping centres.

Ofcom, the telecoms watchdog, has a duty to make the best use of radio spectrum — the airwaves — by releasing it to the market
It is expected to sell about 400 megahertz of prime spectrum by the end of decade
The sale of spectrum will lead to the introduction of several new, exciting technologies and services
The money raised from each auction is handed to the Treasury
In 2000, the Chancellor’s coffers were given a bumper boost from the auction of spectrum for third-generation (3G) mobile phones. The bidding raised £22.5 billion
The mobile operators, which believe that they overpaid for the 3G licences, want some of the money back. They have launched a legal challenge in Europe, seeking tax rebates worth more than £3 billion on the licences
Forthcoming auctions include one for the so-called “3G expansion band”
However, mobile operators want to delay the auction because they fear that selling off another chunk of the airwaves, at what is expected to

UK GAS

THE eight-year-old gas pipeline between Britain and Belgium emerges in the coastal town of Zeebrugge where, with barbed wire the only obvious sign of security, it is housed in a line of sheds and manned by a handful of staff.
The unassuming surroundings make the pipeline, known as the interconnector, an unlikely lifeline for Britain, but the country is becoming increasingly dependent on it.
NI_MPU('middle');
The interconnector, linking Zeebrugge with Bacton in Norfolk, was originally built to send gas from Britain’s North Sea fields to the gas-guzzling German market. But as supplies of Britain’s North Sea gas start to wane, it is beginning to flow the other way.
Britain, so long a net gas exporter, has become a net importer. We consume 113 billion cubic metres (bcm) a year, for both domestic and industrial use. About 64% comes from the North Sea and Irish Sea, and 9.4% through the interconnector, according to Ofgem, the energy regulator. Gas can also be drawn from Britain’s gas-storage sites or shipped in from overseas in liquified form.
The government estimates that about 90% of Britain’s gas comes from domestic sources and the rest is imported. Our reliance on gas imports will rise sharply after next year.
Imports through the interconnector and the newly opened LNG (liquified natural gas) terminal on the Isle of Grain in Kent have been well under capacity despite soaring demand this winter. The former has the potential to deliver 16.5bcm and the latter 4.5bcm.
British consumers have seen their energy bills soar, while industry has warned that it could face shutdowns due to lack of gas.
Ofgem has launched an inquiry into why the interconnector was not operating at full throttle despite strong demand from Britain. The pipeline, in which BG Group, Eni, Eon and Gazprom all have shareholdings, is sometimes only half full, said Ofgem.

Free Broaadband

CARPHONE WAREHOUSE will this week launch a land grab on the broadband market that will provoke a price war for high-speed internet access, and could lift the company into the FTSE 100.
The company, increasingly moving beyond its roots as a mobile-phone retailer, is expected to offer “free” broadband as part of a bundle with its Talk Talk landline service.
NI_MPU('middle');
The promotion, which will be backed by extensive advertising, is intended to build on Carphone Warehouse’s ambition to establish Talk Talk as the leading consumer alternative to BT Group. At present, Carphone has only about 75,000 broadband customers, trailing far behind BT Retail with 2.3m and NTL, which has more than 2.8m after its recent acquisition of Telewest.
Until now, Carphone has been hampered by having to resell BT’s wholesale broadband product. However, it is investing £60m to install its own broadband equipment in up to 1,000 BT exchanges, allowing it to reach perhaps 70% of the population.
This move — known as local-loop unbundling — will give Carphone much more control of the speed, price and service standards of the broadband products it is able to offer.
BT is currently constrained in its ability to respond to Carphone’s challenge. Until 1.5m local loops (or lines) are unbundled, BT will remain subject to price controls imposed by Ofcom, the industry regulator. At present, only about 300,000 local loops have been unbundled, the overwhelming majority of them in the past six months.

UK Pension Crisis

On Tuesday, Commission chairman Adair Turner will release a 50-page document restating the panel's conclusions and responding to comments on the November report.
His submission will also formally mark the end of his commission, set up over three years ago to look at how Britain could overhaul its 57 billion-pound shortfall in retirement savings.
The government will now press ahead with a white paper proposing legislative changes to state pension provision.
Last year, Work and Pensions Secretary John Hutton said the Commission's pension proposals were "the right basis for the debate to come," adding that he was "ruling nothing in and nothing out".
In November, the Pensions Commission said in a report that the state retirement age should be raised to 67 from 65.
It also recommended all employees should be automatically enrolled into private pension schemes or into a new National Pensions Savings Scheme (NPSS).
The proposed NPSS would use tax systems to channel workers' and company contributions into a few large pots of money to reduce management fees.
But critics have said the NPSS would undermine the pensions sector by damaging existing plans and reducing the range of pension fund providers.

What are the alternatives!
