Exotic Options for Interruptible Electricity Supply Contracts
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents the design and pricing of financial contracts for the supply and procurement of interruptible electricity service. While the contract forms and pricing methodology have broader applications, the focus of this work is on electricity market applications, which motivate the contract structures and price process assumptions. In particular, we propose a new contract form that bundles simple forwards with exotic call options that have two exercise points with different strike prices. Such options allow hedging and valuation of supply curtailment risk, while explicitly accounting for the notification lead time before curtailment. The proposed instruments are priced under the traditional GBM price process assumption and under the more realistic assumption (for electricity markets) of a mean reverting price process with jumps. The latter results employ state of the art Fourier transforms techniques. First Version: January 26, 2000 This Version: April 03, 2001

Interruptible Electricity Contracts from an Electricity Retailer's Point of View: Valuation and Optimal Interruption
We consider interruptible electricity contracts issued by an electricity retailer that allow for interruptions to electric service in exchange for either an overall reduction in the price of electricity delivered or for financial compensation at the time of interruption. We provide an equilibrium model to determine electricity prices based on stochastic models of supply and demand. In the conte...

We consider interruptible electricity contracts issued by a distributor of electricity, that allow for interruptions to electric service in exchange for either an overall reduction in the price of electricity delivered, or for financial compensation at the time of interruption.

متن کاملIncentive control of spinning reserve in electricity multi-markets
Reliable and efficient operation of deregulated electricity markets requires supply and demand elasticity. This paper presents incentive control of spinning reserves in electricity multi-markets using game theory. Interruptible load contracts (ILC) could reduce the amount of spinning reserve requirements during system contingencies such as transmission congestion. It is shown that the power uti...
متن کاملReduced Form Electricity Spot Price Modeling
Since the early 1990s, an increasing number of countries worldwide have liberalized their electricity power sectors. Contrary to before, when power sectors were not open to competition and prices were set by regulators according to the cost of generation, transmission and distribution, electricity prices are now determined by an equilibrium of supply and demand. On one hand, electricity contrac...
متن کاملRisk Analysis of Interruptible Load Contracts∗
Deregulation of electricity industries often poses enormous risk for retailers who must purchase electricity from spot markets at volatile prices and sell it to end-use consumers at stable retail rates. Absent any demand-side response, one recourse available to retailers in order to hedge against this exposure is to offer interruptible load (IL) contracts. These financial instruments enable the...
