Key Features:Gives a detailed account of advanced stochastic models for spot, futures and option price dynamics in energy marketsGives a detailed analysis of electricity and gas futures prices, with an emphasis on market models (also known as LIBOR models).

This paper presents an analytic approximation for the pricing dynamics of spark spread options in terms of Fourier transforms. We propose to model the spark spread, that is, the price difference of electricity and gas, directly using a mean-reverting model with diffusion and jumps. The model is...

Weather derivatives (WD) are different from most financial derivatives because the underlying weather cannot be traded and therefore cannot be replicated by other financial instruments. The market price of risk (MPR) is an important parameter of the associated equivalent martingale measures used...
