The paper begins with an introduction outlining the focus and methodology of the study. The second chapter presents a detailed summary of the article by Fabra and Toro, discussing the argumentation regarding the relationship between market rules, market structure, and market power in the British electricity market. The chapter highlights the regulatory changes brought about by NETA and their impact on market dynamics. It also examines competing views on the causes of the decline in electricity prices, contrasting the perspectives of J. Bower and D. Newberry with those of J. Evans and R. Green.
