Electricity markets in times of (climate) change

The new season of FSR Insights starts with a conversation with the editors of the recently published Handbook of Electricity Markets: Prof. Jean-Michel Glachant (FSR Director), Prof. Paul L. Joskow, (MIT), and Prof. Michael G. Pollitt (Judge Business School, University of Cambridge).

With twenty-two chapters written by leading international experts, the handbook represents the most detailed and comprehensive overview on electricity markets ever published, covering wholesale and retail; renewable electricity sources; the electrification of mobility, heating, and cooling; and recent innovations such as distributed generation, electrical energy storage, demand response and digital platforms that are disrupting the industry.
