About this product

Product Information

This fine collection of original essays is in recognition of Colin Robinson, who has been at the forefront of thinking in energy economics for over 30 years. Energy in a Competitive Market brings together both prominent academics and practitioners to honour his outstanding and unique contribution. The authors cover a wide and fascinating selection of topics incorporating the whole spectrum of energy economics. In doing so, they examine the belief that markets are the key to the effective allocation of resources, a notion which arguably applies as much to energy as it does to any other commodity. In particular, they focus on several pertinent issues including: competition and regulation in gas and electricity comparative efficiency analysis (yardstick competition) in electricity regulation UK coal in competitive markets vertical integration in the oil industry cluster developments in the UK continental shelf modelling underlying energy demand trends emissions targets, environmental Kuznets curves and incentive mechanisms. Colin Robinson's work on the economics of energy has influenced the thinking of academics, researchers and policymakers alike. This book, in his honour, will undoubtedly do the same.

Reviews
'. . . These essays are solidly researched and documented, carefully expounded theoretically and empirically, and offer the reader new insights into energy market issues and problems of both the past and the future. . . This collection of essays is an excellent festschrift in honor of the substantial energy contributions of Colin Robinson over many years. Because of the essays' primary focus on UK and European matters, they may have more appeal to readers in those locations. Yet the competitive and regulatory themes advanced to improve performance in utilities may resonate well with North American readers interested in efficiencies and effectiveness, particularly after the August 2003 blackout, which affected a wide swath of the US and Canada. The articles on field cluster development, energy demand, and emissions trends and abatement are clearly of interest to readers on energy topics, regardless of their geographic location, for these subjects will be with us for some time to come. The collection constitutes a valuable contribution and advancement to the state of our knowledge in all the subjects addressed.'

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
