Future Electricity Markets
Over the last two decades, many electricity markets have been liberalised worldwide. At the same time, various forms of regulation are still in place and the optimal level and form of public intervention is widely discussed. Much of the discussion focuses on adequacy and reliability issues and on the support schemes for renewables.
