متن کاملBoom & Bust in Power Plant Construction: Lessons from the California Electricity Crisis
This article argues that competitive electricity markets are prone to the same cycles of boom and bust that appear in commodity markets and in a specialized industry like real estate. The article then demonstrates how boom and bust might appear in the western electricity system using computer simulation. A “business as usual” simulation shows that the west might be at the crest of a building bo...

This paper describes simulated scenarios for power plant construction in the western United States. The simulations show construction lagging behind the growth in demand, allowing prices to climb to surprisingly high values during the years 2000 and 2001. When construction is completed, new power plants come on line in great number, allowing market prices to fall surprisingly rapidly in the yea...

Additionally, new structured securities have been developed, e.g., MBS, CDOs, and CDS, which have acted as instruments of risk transfer.
