Modeling day–ahead electricity prices

چکیده
Introducing a production–based approach, we take into account different attitudes and liabilities of market participants to discuss the equilibrium day–ahead prices on electricity. Conditions ensuring the existence of the equilibrium are given and price distribution is considered. We include a discussion of reasons for high price volatility.

متن کاملDo Electricity Prices Reflect Economic Fundamentals?: Evidence from the California ISO
In a truly smart grid, system load would be known in advance with a high degree of confidence. Currently, this goal of “smart forecasting” is far from being realized. In the Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) aggregation area managed by the California Independent System Operator (ISO), the root mean squared day-ahead forecast error was about 3.8 percent of mean actual load over the period 1 April ...

Instead agents ...
