Subject: india database jim / wade , as you are aware , i have been working with vince ' s group on the henwood model data . the target was to have data on all india plants collected by jan . 15 th . we all know that getting power out o maharashtra holds the key to being able to solve the dabhol challenge . with all of your help , this model can become the tool that tells us exactly how that can be done , and at what prices . we are a substantial part of the way there on data collection , and have got data of some 1500 plants across the country . the spreadsheet for the same is attached . this will help you answer any questions that come up in calls about the various plants . please note that we are located in the western region , or wr in the spreadsheet . we will be further scrubbing the data and getting more recent and accurate information , especially on maharashtra over the next 2 - 3 days . the henwood team will be in india on sunday , and will compare notes with the team here . i am arranging for a presentation on the model and what it will do . wade - it would be good if a broad section of the team attend , including neil , yourself and mohan . i will talk to you about a convenient time for you in this regard . neil & mohan - over the next week ( monday and tuesday ) i will need some time from vivek , anshuman , ravi , and a few others , to interact with the henwood team . i will be abliged if you can make that possible . the first phase of model runs ( which will be done by jan . end ) will just give us some more basic information , but i will need all of your inputs in order to ask the right questions . the idea is that as we go along , this model will be used to answer all types of management questions concerning dabhol , and power evacuation out of maharashtra . this will be critical for the team going forward . regards , sandeep .

Subject: access on the block : international transmission auctions - cera a lert - december 20 , 2000 title : access on the block : international transmission auctions are opening european power markets e - mail category : cera insight cera knowledge area : european power despite an apparent impasse in negotiations among european transmission system operators , regulators , and the european commission in florence , auctions of international transmission capacity ( itc ) in france , the united kingdom , denmark , belgium , italy , austria , switzerland , slovenia , and the netherlands are opening access between countries and paving the way for the single european marketplace . however , the patchwork auctioning of access to itc leaves important issues unresolved . the most significant of these include the potential for gaming , third - party transit , and the allocation of auction proceeds . as they stand , these issues , cera believes , are likely to lead to action at the european level and the eventual imposition of a more integrated scheme . nevertheless , current plans to open most of europe ' s itc represent a watershed of activity that will hasten transparency in the market and determine trade flows and signal transmission investment in 2001 . international auctions are opening markets a major portion of international transmission capacity on the continent will be allocated by auction in 2001 ( see table 1 ) . in cera ' s view auctions for itc are likely to have the greatest impact during 2001 in the following areas : * increasing market transparency . the posting of available transmission capacity on yearly , monthly , and daily bases will facilitate the market ' s efficient usage of scarce interconnector capacity . for the first time , signals for new transmission investment , power flows , and transmission asset valuation will come from the market . * increasing cross - border trade . although auctions may not reduce uncertainty in the marketplace initially , the effect of heightened transparency in access rules and prices will soon work to increase trade . secondary markets for interconnector capacity will add to the number of actively traded power products and work to increase the overall level of trade . ? * increasing price correlation . auctions will replace nonmarket - based allocation methods such as long - term capacity reservation . the dynamic character of shorter - term auctions , combined with an expected secondary market for capacity , should bring access to international capacity in line with the needs of the market . in this way the market will be able to adjust more rapidly to changes in local conditions and thereby work to correlate pricing points . * increasing competition . once players have secured access to itc at a given price , they will be looking to sign supply contracts or integrate the capacity into structured deals . the result could be more aggressive maneuvering on the part of incumbents and new entrants alike , resulting in greater competition at the national level . * reducing the competitiveness of imports . the results of international transmission capacity auctions will determine the competitiveness of imported power into domestic markets . final prices offered for itc will reflect the relative cost of power between markets and work to make cheaper power more expensive to import . * spurring investment in transmission . the money raised through auction could provide transmission companies with the financial capability to invest in upgrading international transmission links . access to international transmission capacity between the netherlands , germany , and belgium in 2001 was auctioned for 63 million euros ( see http : / / www . tso - auction . org for details ) . ? auctions for access into spain , france , and italy are expected to realize a premium for access to highly coveted markets . connecting rather than integrating markets auctions between national grids , or more accurately commercial grids , are a pragmatic approach to the problem of granting access to scarce international transmission capacity on an open and transparent basis . the auctions will open access to interconnectors and at the same time reward transmission system operators . even so , the proposed approaches are not likely to satisfy market players or the stated objectives of european policymakers . in cera ' s view the following issues may eventually bring down the hammer on itc auctions : * third - party transit . the bilateral nature of itc auctions perpetrates the problem of tariff pancaking and discriminates against trade involving transit through a third grid . this is ultimately inconsistent with the european commission ' s objective of a single european power market . the fact that physical power flows do not follow contractual flows and almost always transit third - party grids further weakens the legitimacy of the approach . * transaction - based scheme . although still transactional in nature ( tied to a specific deal ) , auctions fall within the european commission ' s stated preference for market - based mechanisms for allocating international transmission capacity . it remains to be seen how successful this approach is in achieving integration of national markets . action at the european level could move allocation of itc in the direction of nontransactional mechanisms such as market splitting , counter trading , or redispatching . * gaming of auctions . auctions will in theory allocate access to transmission on a nondiscriminatory market basis to those that value it most . in practice it remains to be seen if gaming can be avoided . even though most of the auctions have placed limits on ownership of transmission capacity , tactical maneuvers could bid up transmission prices as players act to raise the price of imported power . * allocating auction proceeds . one likely outcome of auctions will be the transfer of profits between players as transmission owners recoup some of the rents currently reaped by other players . this will works to raise the value of transmission assets relative to generation , suppliers , or traders . it remains to be seen how funds from auctions will be allocated among transmission companies and the grid , as transmission is still currently subject to monopoly regulation . * * end * * come shoot the rapids with us at ceraweek 2001 , " shooting the rapids : strategies and risks for the energy future " in houston , february 12 - 16 , 2001 ! ?

i ' m including what i have already written ( although i think it has changed slightly from this version ) so that you can see the style . many thanks and best regards . chris . 2 overview of this book this book aims to provide an in - depth understanding of the pricing and risk management of energy derivatives . in the remainder of this chapter we give an overview of the fundamental principals needed to model and price energy assets , and which underlie the rest of the book . as well as introducing the techniques that underlie the black - scholes modelling framework we discuss the numerical techniques of trinomial trees and monte carlo simulation for derivative pricing which are used extensively later in the book . in chapter 2 we analyse spot energy prices . apart from describing empirical prices we propose a number of processes that can be used to model the prices . we look at the well - know process of gbm as well as mean reversion , stochastic volatility and jump processes , discussing each , and showing how they can be simulated and their parameters estimated . chapter 3 , written by vince kaminski , grant masson and ronnie chahal of enron corporation , discusses volatility estimation in energy commodity markets . this chapter builds on the previous one . it examines in detail the methods , merits and pitfalls of the volatility estimation process assuming different pricing models introduced in chapter 2 . examples from crude , gas , and electricity markets are used to illustrate the technical and interpretative aspects of calculating volatility . chapter 4 examines forward curves in the energy markets . although such curves are well understood and straight forward in the world debt markets the difficulty of storage in many energy markets leads to less well defined curves . what we do in this chapter chapter 5 presents an overview of the common and not - so - common derivative structures in the energy markets and discusses their uses . examples of products analysed in this chapter include a variety of swaps , caps , floors and collars , as well as energy swaptions , compound options , asian ( or average rate ) options , barriers , lookbacks , and ladder options . chapter 6 investigates single and multi - factor models of the energy spot price and the pricing of some standard energy derivatives . closed form solutions for forward prices , forward volatilities , and european option prices are derived and presented for all the models in this chapter including a three factor stochastic convenience yield and interest rate model with jumps . chapter 7 shows how the prices of path dependent and american style options can be evaluated for the models in chapter 6 . simulation schemes are developed for the evaluation of european style options and applied to a variety of path dependent options . in order to price options which incorporate early exercise opportunities , a trinomial tree scheme is developed . this tree is built to be consistent with the observed forward curve and can be used to price exotic as well as standard american style options . chapter 8 develops a new methodology for valuing energy options based on modelling the market observed forward curve . the approach results in a multi - factor model that is able to capture realistically the evolution of a wide range of energy forward curves and where the user defined volatility structures can be of an extremely general form . closed - form solutions are developed for pricing standard european options and efficient monte carlo schemes for exotic options . the chapter finishes with a discussion of the valuation of american style options . chapter 9 focuses on the risk management of energy derivative positions . in this chapter we discuss the management of price risk for institutions that sell options or other derivatives to a client and who is then faced with the problem of managing the risk through time . we begin with delta hedging a portfolio containing derivatives and look at extensions to gamma hedging - using the models from chapters 5 and 7 . the general model of chapter 7 ideally suited to multi - factor hedging and this is also discussed . chapter 10 looks at the key risk - management concept of value at risk applied to portfolios containing energy derivative portfolios . after discussing the concept of the measure , we look at how the key inputs ( volatilities , covariances , correlations , etc ) can be estimated . we then compare the fours major methodologies for computing var ; delta , delta - gamma , historical simulation and monte - carlo simulation . finally , we look at testing the var estimates for various underlying energy market variables .

Subject: sharad ' s houston visit sharad as expected we didn ' t get time to discuss in detail what to do in houston . we have discussed the subject informally , but i ' m laying it out here for clarity , and for vince / stinson ' s information . here are my thoughts : 1 . exotica . this is the top priority , as you ' d rightly identified yourself . a . learn how to build xlls . b . catalogue functions in houston exotica not yet available in london . c . catalogue differences between inputs to london and houston exotica functions . d . produce london xll that allows current function calls to be used where possible , and incorporates new functions . e . update documentation as appropriate . if you do nothing else in your two weeks , i ' ll be very happy with this . main contacts are paulo and zimin . 2 . understand american monte carlo ( amc ) . the aim is to get a feel for amc ' s characteristics . before we embark on the use of amc for real option valuation , i ' d like to understand how it behaves for financial options . i suggest something like the following : a . produce amc code for single gbm for american option . compare greeks against those from appropriate tree methods . b . two gbm spread option model , to compare against 1 - d numerical integration method . although the " american " bit of amc isn ' t going to be used here , it will be interesting to think about the bucketing issue in price / payoff space and , again , the greeks . c . some form of mean reverting model , preferably two factor . d . hjm for pure financial option valuation . if you get somewhere on a - d , and amc behaves sensibly on pure financial models , then i ' ll be very keen to roll it out for real option valuations . vince / stinson - since i ' m expecting the worst from it i . t . o . email support , would you be good enough to print this email out and hand it to sharad ? many thanks , steve

Subject: a applicable model kim , after yestersday ' s meeting , i ' ve come up with an idea which is applicable to the zone ef and seems also to be applicable to the broader area . the model assumes that if there are positive spreads of energy products between pairs of locations , we can always find the possibilities of swaptions . this assumption , as discussed with jim and sean , is a reasonable approximation . i suggest that the prototype be built up at this model if you think that it is rational . if you interested in the model , i will explain it to all of you . best regards , youyi
