As the advent of the Smart Grid revolutionizes how homeowners and
businesses purchase and manage power, electricity pricing is
becoming more complicated and intricate than ever before, while the
need for more frequent rate revisions remains a primary issue in
the field. A timely and accessible guide for the new industry
environment, Electricity Pricing: Engineering Principles and
Methodologies helps those involved in both the engineering and
financial operations of electric power systems to "get the money
right" while ensuring reliable electric service at a fair and
reasonable cost. Explores both the business functions and
engineering principles associated with electricity pricing
Examining pricing approaches and opportunities, this book presents
tools, viewpoints, and explanations that are generally not found in
contemporary literature. It clarifies valuable analysis techniques,
realistic examples, and unique lessons passed along from those
inside the industry. This "how to do it" guide fosters a
multidisciplinary understanding that integrates information,
methodologies, and techniques from accounting, economics,
engineering, finance, and marketing. Detail-oriented but still
mindful of the big picture, this book examines the complex
relationship between electricity, customers, and service providers
in relation to pricing. Electricity Pricing also: Presents
mathematical methods and techniques used to establish electricity
prices, determine cost causation, and evaluate pricing structures
and mechanisms Explores ways to translate and integrate cost
elements into practical pricing structures Details how engineering
concepts are used to apportion production, delivery, and associated
costs to determine cost of service and to support all aspects of
ratemaking strategy, design, analysis, and decision making This
comprehensive professional reference addresses theory but remains
grounded in no-nonsense practical applications. It is dually suited
to introduce newcomers to the technical principles and
methodologies of electricity pricing and provide veterans with a
valuable consolidation of advanced tools for pricing analysis and
problem solving. Watch an interview of the author at
