As a companion volume to the Handbook on Electricity Markets, this book focuses on the regulated parts of the sector—network regulation, the role of regulators, and retail electricity. Its three sections cover the foundations of regulation, future challenges on the path to net zero, and regulatory developments in major non-OECD regions.

Key themes include balancing monopoly price control with efficiency, adapting regulation to decarbonisation and new technologies, and addressing emerging areas such as green hydrogen and EV charging. The book emphasises the value of strong incentive regulation and the growing complexity of transmission oversight.
