The electricity industry is a key utility and which impacts nearly
every facet of life. One major question is how best to provide and
oversee the production of energy -- are free markets the answer or
should the government assume the task of keeping its citizens'
needs supplied? The level of electricity regulation has particular
resonance in America, as witnessed by the recent catastrophe in
California and the collapse of energy giant Enron. Policymakers
have to balance the American tradition of capitalism with the
concerns of those who view the energy industry as damaging to the
environment and focused more on profits than people. Collected here
is a set of papers introducing the issues influencing electric
policy along with a an extensive bibliography of the book and
journal literature on the subject, making this book an important
resource for understanding the problems of electricity
restructuring.
