About this Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) 
Forward pricing and valuation in electricity generation is a 4 half day intensive, technical hands-on course in which attendees receive comprehensive instruction on the theory and practice of making price forecasts and assessing risk in the electricity generating industry. After a discussion of electricity markets around the world, the course moves to programming and model structuring, where attendees follow the lead of the instructor in building various analyzes of forward pricing and and valuation issues.
TRAINING OBJECTIVES
Learn practical tools to analyse a host of issues in electricity analysis including efficient tools to work with supply and demand data; creating flexible scenario and sensitivity analysis to evaluate power prices and marginal costs; effectively presenting short-term and long-term supply and curves; development of hydro analysis; Monte Carlo simulation and other issues.
Create demand and supply models of electricity pricing that incorporates changes in fuel prices, new capacity, demand profiles, maintenance outages to measure hourly marginal cost and total generation cost.
Study the structure of market designs around the world and simulate pricing strategies through evaluation of the California crisis and simulation exercises.
Understand the relationship between capacity pricing, reliability, loss of load probability and reserve margins through extending the short-run supply and demand analysis and modelling outage cost with different capacity configurations.
Model the economic value of different types of renewable resources in alternative markets including storage hydro, run-of-river hydro, wind and solar.
Develop efficient ways to quickly compute the levelised electricity cost of different technologies using carrying charge factors and alternative financial models and use levelised cost analysis to develop screening models of optimal resources.
Evaluate long-run marginal cost of electricity cost through simulating the value of different generating resources given load curves and simulate the effects of different capital costs, heat rates and fuel prices on the long-run marginal cost.
Compute the effects of start-up costs, heat rate curves, and transmission constraints on the value of alternative plants and the price of electricity.
TARGET AUDIENCE
Energy industry professionals – This could include roles like energy traders, pricing analysts, forecasters, risk managers at energy companies, utilities, independent power producers, etc. They need to understand electricity pricing and how to optimize revenues.
Energy market regulators – Pricing regulators at entities like FERC, state utility commissions, ISO/RTOs. They need to understand cost analysis and pricing models to set fair rates.
Energy procurement managers – At large C&I customers, municipalities, coops. They are tasked with buying electricity for their organizations at the lowest cost so need pricing analysis skills.
Energy investment analysts – At banks, investment firms, hedge funds. They need electricity pricing models for valuation of energy investments and assets.
Energy policy analysts – At government agencies, think tanks, advocacy groups. They provide advice and analysis on energy policy issues like rate design.
COURSE LEVEL
Intermediate
TRAINING METHODS
The VILT will be delivered online in 4 sessions comprising 4 hours per day, with 2 breaks of 10 minutes per day, including time for lectures, discussion, quizzes and short classroom exercises.
Additionally, some self-study will be requested. Participants are invited but not obliged to bring a short presentation (10 mins max) on a practical problem they encountered in their work. This will then be explained and discussed during the VILT. A short test or quiz will be held at the end the course.

Course Breakdown
This qualification is not a technical certificate which you spend most of your time in a classroom or workshop, but rather a qualification that is completed in a place of work. To be able to complete this qualification you must be able to evidence your electrotechnical competency by completing Electrical installations on site and then have your work assessed by one of our Assessors. The majority of the assessment programme is completed on site (a real place of work and not a training centre), a small amount at the training centre and then the final stage is an assessment known as the AM2 (Achieved Measurement), which will be completed at an AM2 approved centre.
Why do you need the Level 3 NVQ Electrical qualification?
It allows for Electrical Improvers and Experienced Workers to progress in their career as a qualified Electrician and onto the AM2 Assessment:
Upon completion of the AM2, Electrical Improvers and Experienced Workers can do the following:
Obtain the status of “Electrician” with the JIB. If you wish to join them or work for an Electrical Contracting firm that is a member of the JIB.
Obtain a JIB Gold ECS card.
Become a Part P registered “Approved Electrician” with one of the Part P scheme providers such as NICEIC, Elecsa or NAPIT.
What does the Level 3 NVQ Electrical programme consist of?
There is no duration set for the level 3 NVQ as it will be down to the trainee, depending on how long it will take for he/she to complete a portfolio of evidence and obtain the Electrical work needed to complete the targets set by City and Guilds. The stages include:
A small qualification bridging unit and assessment is undertaken at the training centre.
Portfolio sessions will be taken at the centre to guide the trainee.
Assessments are completed on site.
A final assessment (AM2) will be completed at an AM2 centre - Not included in course fees.
Do you charge for site assessments and if so, how much does a visit cost? 
Don’t be caught out by unexpected additional charges. Our NVQ package allows you unlimited site visits for free, you only pay once for this NVQ unlike most other providers.

The Book Club book
Author Athena Liu is a literary phenomenon while her friend June Hayward is a literally nobody, and is jealous. So when Athena dies in a freak accident, June sees nothing too wrong in stealing her unpublished work and publishing it herself under the name Juniper Song. When questions start to be asked, what will June do to protect her new-found success...? 

Yellowface raises interesting contemporary questions of diversity, racism, and cultural appropriation, while being gripping and highly readable.

‘Ingenious, astute, hugely entertaining’ David Nicholls
‘Hard to put down. Harder to forget’ Stephen King
Geoff says:
"It's funny that this book has been a publishing sensation - given that it satirizes the book publishing industry! It was Amazon book of the year, and the Fiction Book of the Year 2024 at the British Book Awards."
