The Market for Energy cover

This is an up-to-date account of economic aspects of the energy markets, dealing with recent advances in the economics of energy and the implications for regulation, privatization, and international competition in each of the major markets - electricity, gas, coal, and oil.

'the findings and arguments presented in the book provide a comprehensive overview of the most recent state of the reform programme' Natural Resources Forum, November 1990
'a very useful and informative collection of papers ... The editors are to be congratulated in procucing an integrated volume by supplementing the IFS research project with papers by leading experts in the economics of energy sectors.' Dr Norman A White, Energy World, November 1990
`the interested reader already familiar with basic concepts of energy economics learns quite a lot of interesting points with respect to the British experience and the change in policy towards privatization and attempts to reach more competition ... the book may be used as an interesting source for the contrast between well-meant political aims and a relatively modest outcome.' Kyklos
