Gross Negligence in Canadian Energy Contracts

Malice/gross negligence.

I n health care liability claims, claimants often plead for recovery of exemplary/punitive damages from the defendant health care providers. These allegations often cause anxiety for the defendants, because invariably their professional liability insurance carrier sends them a letter stating that such claims—as well as any damages that may be awarded to compensate the claimant for such claims—a...

Funding by energy services companies is an efficient, new way of financing energy efficiency projects. An Energy Services Company (ESCO) is a company that designs, implements and finances energy efficiency improvement projects. Some of the services that these companies offer include developing, designing and financing energy efficiency projects, installing and maintaining energy efficiency proj...

Energy contracts management by stochastic programming techniques

We consider the problem of optimal management of energy contracts, with bounds on the local (time step) amounts and global (whole period) amounts to be traded, integer constraint on the decision variables and uncertainty on prices only. After building a nite state Markov chain by using vectorial quantization tree method, we rely on the stochastic dual dynamic programming (SDDP) method to solve ...
