Executive Course to Master Electricity Markets

The energy crisis that was triggered by the Russian war in Ukraine has led European power markets to unprecedented levels of prices and stress. It has also led to wide ranging policy interventions and calls for reforms of the wholesale electricity market design. 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 reform of electricity markets, the implementation of RePower EU and Clean Energy 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.
