Wholesale electricity spot markets of different variants have been operating in most developed countries and around 20 percent of their developing counterparts. Although these markets have by and large stood the test of time, their ability to decarbonize power systems in tandem with carbon, renewable, and other policy drivers raises questions about the efficacy of the existing market designs. Expert opinions in the academic and industry literature are divided on this issue, ranging from very few changes to sweeping changes. This review of the literature suggests that in the short term, there is prima facie no reason to believe that the existing market designs are inadequate.

Renewable energy has never been more important than it is today, as climate change becomes arguably the world's most essential problem to be solved. Solving this problem is proving difficult and complex - none more so than for emerging economies that are undergoing rapid economic development with increasing use of fossil fuels. There are many challenges for these countries that are making efforts to promote renewable energy use, with limited resources. Good government policies and corporate strategies are essential to support these efforts as a part of the global climate change crisis. This important book addresses the very latest developments in renewable energy management plus the key challenges and risks. Potential new policies and strategies for the further growth of renewable energies in emerging economies, together with high-level business case examples of renewable management in emerging economies, are addressed. This book is essential reading for policy makers, government employees, business executives, professionals, researchers and academics looking to improve global renewable energy policies, investments and management.
