Abstract: Fundamentals of Electric Deregulation

The talk will provide an overview of recent regulatory initiatives at the federal and state level concerning the deregulation of the electric power industry. The effects of these initiatives on the IPP (independent power production) sector will be emphasized. A discussion of the evolution of contracting for the sale of power from the passage of PURPA (Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act) in 1978 through the present will presented. The relationship between new merchant IPPs and the power exchange (a power spot market trading center) in places like California where deregulation is already in place will be covered.
