Great book for anyone wanting to learn about the industry
This book was suggested by the CEO of my company for every new MBA recruits. I found this book really helpful in learning a lot about the industry.The book is divided into two parts. The first part explains what are the components, who are the players, what an ideal industry would look like, etc of an electric industry. The second part is dedicated to the US electric industry.
The author does a wonderful job of explaining the basic fundamentals of the industry. At times some concepts get hard to comprehend because the concepts are unusually complicated. For someone new to this industry, it might require more than one reading and I can bet that it is worth their time.
This is a great book for anyone interested in learning about the industry.

OK for the jargon averse person.
In this book all technical terms are defined and the prose is more or less similar to that of the Wall Street Jounal. The book increased my understanding from incredulity that deregulation of energy can be done to a comfortable sense of the system operating components and a few of the possible foul-ups. One book didn't make me an expert but I don' blame the author. Also it was a pleasant if not simple read.
A technical expert is needed to comment on the balance and depth of the presentation; sounded OK to me though. Similar Products
