Managing energy risk : an integrated view on power and other energy markets / Markus Burger, Bernhard Graeber, Gero Schindlmayr.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 291-294) and index.

Mathematical techniques for trading and risk management. Managing Energy Risk closes the gap between modern techniques from financial mathematics and the practical implementation for trading and risk management. It takes a multi-commodity approach that covers the mutual influences of the markets for fuels, emission certificates, and power. It includes many practical examples and covers methods from financial mathematics as well as economics and energy-related models.
