Course offer: "The Law of Electricity Market Design", 19-20 February 2018, Cape Town, South Africa



The University of Cape Town, South Africa and the University of Oslo, Faculty of Law, Norway, are pleased to present a two-day training course.
 
Electricity market design underpins the functioning of power systems. With changing generation and consumption patterns, there is an urgent need to re-think electricity market design and implement reforms. The objective of this course is to explore the fundamentals of electricity market design, the challenges faced by the current power systems and the legal mechanisms available to re-design the electricity market.
 
Acknowledging that there is not one-size-fits-it-all approach to electricity market design and that the reasons for changes may differ between coun­tries, the course will start with the theoretical fundamentals, and then ex­plore the available mechanisms for re-designing electricity markets at the physical and financial levels. References will be made to national legal frameworks (South Africa, Norway, Namibia) as well as regional cooperation.
