Vidmantas Jankauskas, Chairman, ERRA (Energy Regulators Regional Association)

From the Inside Flap

"The author presents a thorough description of the different market models and a perfect view of the modern competitive electricity sector, living and permanently changing." - Vidmantas Jankauskas, Chairman, ERRA (Energy Regulators Regional Association).

"This book is the first of its kind to bring together the structure of electricity markets, the behavior of market participants, environmental factors, regulation and policy, and analyze their combined impact on electricity prices. It also addresses some of the most important issues currently facing marketing and trading practitioners, namely the pricing of wholesale derivatives and power plant economics. Chris Harris has delivered some of the most interesting talks on the conference circuit for years and his enthusiasm for his subject material shines through in this book." - Dr Chris Strickland, Director, Lacima Group

2.0 out of 5 stars Tedious by way of overly complicated writing style, March 19, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Electricity Markets: Pricing, Structures and Economics (The Wiley Finance Series) (Hardcover)
Even if you aren't new to electricity, you will find Harris' writing style a bit too technical to keep your interest for very long. Would recommend that stick with the more interestingly written books and technical papers by Eydeland & Wolyniec.
