Toward an EU Gas-Purchasing Cartel

"Instead of outbidding each other and driving prices up," on 25 March, the 27 EU nations decided to "pool [their] purchasing power" for the "voluntary common purchase of gas". In short, they decided to form a buyers' cartel. So far, difficulties have been identified, but what is needed is a systematic design effort addressing those difficulties. This column proposes a simple, but fairly comprehensive framework for an EU gas-purchasing cartel.
