n the course of the seminar, the students work independently on economic issues in the field of energy markets using the textbook “Handbook on electricity markets”. Students receive an introduction to the economic fundamentals of electricity markets. On the basis of this, the students select one of 15 students and present the problem presented on the basis of economic papers. They develop these independently and prepare the contents in such a way that they can be presented to their fellow students as part of a presentation. The papers available for selection are modelled on the structure of the textbook mentioned at the beginning. The penetration of the assigned economic paper forms the basis of a written elaboration on an associated legal question. The students learn to use economic arguments in a legal argumentation and to present the results of this argumentation scientifically convincing.
