Trading and Risk management are similar, but different roles. Is it wise to combine them?
Should price signals be ever more complex or simplified? Net zero if changing the electricity market , but the method of price formation remains extremely contentious. There will be winners and losers, so staying on top of the developments is key.
As electricity price shape changes with more renewable generation, different customer groups are treating their exposure very differently. What does it mean for the future?
Renewable electricity contracts use certificates to prove their credentials. Will increasing the granularity of measurement increase the amount of renewable generation? What are the wider impacts of such a move?
Electricity prices are increasingly negative on windy days. Whilst this may be sold as good news, the long term consequences of this policy failure are unlikely to be beneficial.
Managing the cost of balancing the electricity system is expensive, and complex.
What is a reasonable level of risk premium for fixing the cost of balancing?
Electricity Wholesale liquidity is falling in the GB market. Ofgem is concerned that it may not be high enough to give participants what they need.
What are the consequences of this and why does it matter?
Long term energy contracts can create large value, or large costs. Creating a contract that works in the long term is complicated, but can ensure security.
The domestic energy price cap is big news, but is not an effective cap. Using it as a guide to what not to do, can provide insights for those that need to manage energy price risk

Increasing Solar electricity generation reduces the relative value of its output at peak times. Long term trends show the impact. PPA buyers, investors and sellers should all be aware of the potential impacts.
Getting the units wrong can lead to major problems, yet in electricity MW and MWh are somtimes used interchangeably. What's the difference and why does it matter?

The changing incentives to drive the right behaviours
The energy transition will be expensive. The mechanisms by which it is paid for will have huge consequences for consumers and generators - yet are almost never discussed.
Headlines say renewable generation is always cheaper. Is that true? It depends on the cost structure.
Energy retail is going to change as the transition to net zero takes place. How it will change and who will be impacted is becoming clear.
Generator Revenue Cap delivers the expected windfall tax on generation. the details provide for a cap, along with how it will be implemented.
green levies are a large cost of the electricity bill, and while some want to 'cancel' them its a lot more complicated than that.
Carbon Price is the only part of energy prices that Government's can control. As the crisis deepens, providing a more focussed approach to carbon prices could save customers money without harming the move to net zero.
