Abstract :
The paper analyses structural changes in deregulated electric power systems (EPS), which should take place in the future if the current trends and conditions remain. The circumstances are considered which define the current EPS functioning and its future structural changes. The mechanism of the restructuring and the boundary conditions, which will start the mechanism, are described.
