Energy Tradeoffs Podcast #3 – David Spence

This week’s EnergyTradeoffs.com podcast features Sharon Jacobs and Shelley Welton interviewing the University of Texas’s David Spence about his research on “‘Naïve Energy Markets’ and the boundary between markets and regulation.”

David argues that both consumers and investors make decisions based on factors that often aren’t considered in simple economic models of energy markets. He discusses electricity pricing, under-investment in energy transport, and government efforts to influence the outcome of energy markets. The interview focuses on his recent Notre Dame Law Review article, which is titled “Naïve Energy Markets.”
