The first systematic presentation of electricity market designfrom the basics to the cutting edge. Unique in its breadth and depth. Using examples and focusing on fundamentals, it clarifies long misunderstood issuessuch as why today's markets are inherently unstable. The book reveals for the first time how uncoordinated regulatory and engineering policies cause boombust investment swings and provides guidance and tools for fixing broken markets. It also takes a provocative look at the operation of pools and power exchanges.* Part 1 introduces key economic, engineering and market design concepts.* Part 2 links shortrun reliability policies with longrun investment problems.* Part 3 examines classic designs for dayahead and realtime markets.* Part 4 covers market power, and* Part 5 covers locational pricing, transmission right and pricing losses.The nontechnical introductions to all chapters allow easy access to the most difficult topics. Steering an independent course between ideological extremes, it provides background material for engineers, economists, regulators and lawyers alike. With nearly 250 figures, tables, side bars, and conciselystated results and fallacies, the 44 chapters cover such essential topics as auctions, fixedcost recovery from marginal cost, pricing fallacies, real and reactive power flows, Cournot competition, installed capacity markets, HHIs, the Lerner index and price caps.About the AuthorSteven Stoft has a Ph.D. in economics (U.C.
