Abstract
Alberta operates one of the few energy-only electricity markets. This paper highlights the benefits of Alberta’s market design for the incorporation of a carbon price which efficiently transmits incentives to market participants. Specific attention is paid to how carbon pricing has contributed to the shift away from coal towards natural gas and wind. The incentives created by carbon pricing have resulted in substantial new investment in wind, solar, and natural gas-fired generation capacity.
