Publisher Description
Power 2026 is a primer on AI's impact on the US power markets, written by Neel Somani, a former quantitative researcher at one of the world's leading hedge funds. Part 1 teaches the fundamentals of power plants and critical frameworks for reasoning about commodities. Part 2 dives into trading methodologies and practical pricing models. The primer applies these lessons through real-world case studies, such as Texas's negative price hours, Homer City's natural gas redevelopment, and the peculiar rising evening prices in California.

Fantastic book
I am a commodity broker and work in all kinds of different financial markets. This book is incredibly relevant to power but ties similar themes into other commodities such as gasoline. Well done and thanks for sharing
An excellent handbook
Learned a lot. Breaks down challenging concepts. Highly recommend.
Highly informative and digestible!
Power 2026 is remarkably timely and offers a compelling look at an industry that is becoming increasingly central to the economy. It’s technical enough to unpack the intricacies of power markets and infrastructure, while remaining accessible and engaging. I particularly enjoyed the connection between AI-driven demand, electrification, and the investment implications. A thoughtful and highly relevant read, especially for anyone in finance or markets.
