In an unregulated electricity generation market, the degree to which generators in" different locations compete with … one another depends on the capacity to transmit electricity" between the locations.

We study price convergence between the two major markets for wholesale electricity in California from their … understanding of the markets, however, could have delayed or prevented price convergence. We find that the two benchmark electricity …

We exploit cross …-industry variation in pre-electricity energy intensity combined with geographic variation in proximity to early hydroelectric power … plants.

Prior to the 1990s, most electricity customers in the U.S. were served by regulated, vertically-integrated, monopoly … utilities that handled electricity generation, transmission, local distribution and billing/collections. Regulators set retail … electricity prices to allow the utility to recover its prudently incurred costs, a process known as cost-of-service regulation …
