Understanding Electric Utilities and De-Regulation provides a non-technical description of the electric power industry and the major issues revolving around its transition from a regulated to a de-regulated industry. This second edition examines new aspects of the industry such as aging electric infrastructures, service reliability, and blackouts. It also discusses some of the shortcomings of early de-regulation and how they were addressed. Covering a wide range of topics including distributed generation, this book serves engineers, economists, utility managers, and non-engineering professionals by presenting an accessible overview of how their particular fields interact with the whole.
