Abstract
⺠The state of knowledge regarding modeling electricity markets is incomplete. ⺠Electricity forward premiums are not necessarily driven by risk aversion. ⺠Efficiency in production requires a certain premium for forward contracting. ⺠It is likely that market premiums are substantially higher than their optimal level. ⺠Policy regulation should not seek to eliminate forward premium entirely.
