Electricity markets present many risks and opportunities to investors, mainly after the deregulation that took place in the last ten years in many countries.
Flexibility can reduce risk and increase value by adjusting the optimal action to the changing market conditions.

This new book comprises the editor's introductory article, 8 papers plus a subject index covering all papers.
All papers are practical and very accessible with few equations, so that undergraduate students and professionals can take
advantage of this welcome addiction to electricity economics bookshelf.
MBA and graduate students also will learn with the
diversity of topics covered by the book and they will know valuable details from the electricity markets.

The book covers all electricity industry process: generation, transmission and distribution/retailing. Among the topics
analyzed I highlight renewable generation, energy portfolio, exotic options, deregulation, contracts, and even organizational
learning.

The subject index is a rare issue in this kind of book (papers collection) but very important for the readers interested in
specific topics. Thanks Anne, for the good edition!
