Adding to EiD’s Closet

There are now 16 books in “The Closet“.  The most recent addition is Electricity Market Reform – An IEA Handbook.

This 1999 IEA report is an excellent reference book for those following electricity market reform in Europe and beyond.  It takes an historical perspective, going back to the 1870s to see how the sector has evolved and it discusses key regulatory reform issues.  It has an important section on aspects dealing with the environment, including energy efficiency, tradable emissions permits, energy subsidies and taxes and fees  It also has a section on transition issues related to stranded costs, social costs and the sequencing of reforms.
