The Florence School of Regulation’s executive course to master Electricity Markets discusses the microeconomics of wholesale power markets and carbon markets and their implications for energy policies.
The course gathers a group of senior practitioners to discuss and share experiences about both the economic and political forces that drive the debate on the evolution of power and carbon markets to enable and support the decarbonisation of the power sector.
The course builds on key economic principles and an interactive approach to discuss current policy debates on the implementation of the Clean Energy Package and the challenges associated with the new Green Deal and the Fit for 55 package, the introduction of capacity mechanisms, scarcity pricing, the reforms of bidding zones, as well as the reform of renewable support mechanisms and the European Emission Trading Scheme.
The FSR Executive Course directed by Thomas-Olivier Léautier (TSE and TotalEnergies) and Fabien Roques (FSR, University Paris Dauphine and Compass Lexecon) discusses the micro-economics of wholesale power and carbon markets and their implications for energy policies.
