Competition and Choice in Electricity
1 January 1997
By Sally Hunt and Graham Shuttleworth
Developments in the electricity sector, including privatization in the UK, have inspired utility planners and regulators around the world to rethink the fundamental structure of their utility industries. This book from John Wiley & Sons, by NERA Director Graham Shuttleworth and Special Consultant Sally Hunt, is the first authoritative study of these widespread changes and their potential impact on the electricity sector. The authors focus on four problems central to the new competitive market in electricity: alternatives for restructuring, transmission pricing, the development of spot markets, and the restructuring of contracts. The book aims to provide the tools needed for the emerging world of competition in production and choice for consumers.
