Energy plays a vital role in economic and social development. The analysis of energy issues and policy options is therefore a vital area of study. This book presents a hierarchical modelling scheme intended to support energy planning and policy analysis in developing countries. The authors introduce the concept of 'Integrated National energy Planning' (INEP), and examine the spreadsheet models, optimization models, and linear planning models which energy planners use. Environmental considerations are also introduced into the analysis. Techniques are then applied to two important energy subsectors, electricity and fuelwood, before problems of integration and policy implementation are discussed. Throughout the book, the authors examine actual practice in developing countries. Illustrative case material is drawn from Egypt, West Africa, Sudan, Pakistan, Colombia, India, Sri Lanka and Morocco. This book will be of interest to students and practitioners of energy planning, and to those concerned with the wider development implications of energy policy.

Around the concept of a spark spread, the value differential between the price of one unit of power and the price of the natural gas volume required to produce that unit, the objective of this case study is to provide tools to assess the value of power generation units. The book describes some aspects of the gas and power markets in Europe, points out and explains the relevant academic literature on asset valuation and explores a pricing model which can be used to value spark spread options, i.e. generation units. The model is calibrated according to the physical reality of gas-fired plants as well as prevailing market conditions, leading to a value for power plants at different European locations.
