Description
Reed Economics Lecture Series: The Electricity Restructuring Debate
William Hogan, "Energy Policy for Electricity Markets"
William W. Hogan, Raymond Plank Professor of Global Energy Policy at Harvard University, is the research director of the Harvard Electricity Policy Group, which explores the issues involved in the transition to a more competitive electricity market. Hogan has served on the faculty of Stanford University, where he founded the Energy Modeling Forum, and is past president of the International Association for Energy Economics. Hogan's research focuses on the interaction of energy economics and public policy, which, in recent years, has meant an emphasis on the restructuring of the electricity industry in the U.S. and worldwide. He has worked to design market structures and market rules by which regional transmission organizations, in various forms, coordinate bid-based markets for energy, ancillary services, and financial transmission rights that allow market participants to hedge congestion costs.
