Electricity pricing in a partial reformed plan system: The case of China

Zhang, Liang - In: Energy Policy 43 (2012) C, pp. 214-225

Despite three decades of reform, the electric power industry in China is still organised by a partial reformed plan system, where the investment to build capacity has been liberalised, but the prices and the production remain controlled by the state. This paper examines the pricing behaviour of...
