Abstract
⺠Savings from China's energy efficient dispatch (EED) policy are at best relatively small. ⺠EED exacerbates imbalances and center-provincial tensions in China's current power system. ⺠Incentive-based dispatch reform is likely to produce better outcomes than EED. ⺠Keys to reform are independent regulation and a formal, transparent ratemaking process. ⺠Transition to cleaner, cost-efficient electricity system in China is political-economic as well as technological.
