The New Economics of Power Markets in a Low-Carbon World

Infocus International Group announces the return of its highly acclaimed Electricity Economics in Changing Electricity Markets virtual course. Two live sessions have been scheduled for 20 April 2026 and 16 November 2026 to accommodate global participants.

This course is an indispensable resource for professionals engaged in electricity generation and trading, as well as for those shaping policy within the power industry. It offers a clear, accessible, and thorough examination of the economics underpinning power generation—from the cost factors of power plants to the structure of end-customer prices. The curriculum is carefully contextualized within the key drivers transforming the sector, such as market liberalization, evolving policy frameworks, the integration of renewable power, and the shift towards more decentralized operations.

The course’s practical and engaging delivery has consistently received high praise from industry professionals.

A past participant from Electricity Generation Company Malawi noted, “The course was very enjoying, with lots of demonstrations and case studies. The facilitator was just marvellous, up to the game. It was a value for money workshop.”

Further commendation comes from IDETA, with a participant stating, “He is a professional trainer with excellent presentation skills. The trainer is able to make simple presentation of complex issues and has a very good knowledge of the renewable matters. I highly recommend him as a trainer.”

The course will examine these key questions:

• Which variables drive the economics of electricity generation?

• How do generation costs combine with other factors to produce end-use electricity prices?

• How are current technology & system trends impacting electricity costs and prices?

• What are policymakers doing to keep costs down?

• Who are the key stakeholders and influencers on electricity economics?

• What are the value-chain impacts of market liberalization and competition?

• How are solar and wind power (and other low-carbon options) changing market environments?

• … and many more!

The course is distinguished by its interactive format, where the expert presenter encourages robust Q&A sessions and examines critical issues from the diverse perspectives of power plant owners, investors, policymakers, and energy customers. This online course serves as an essential primer for anyone seeking to identify and navigate successful business strategies within the world’s transitioning electricity systems.
