Acknowledgements None of this work would have been possible without the selfless assistance of a great number of people. I would like to express my most sincere gratitude to my advisor, Dr. Ross Baldick for his guidance, encouragement, support and great ideas throughout the whole process of my research. He is a wonderful mentor, and his commitment to teaching and dedication to his students was an inspiration to always strive to become a better engineer. I will be forever in debt to Dr. Baldick for all that I have learned from him. I would like to gratefully thank the members of my committee for their valued guidance, time, helpful discussion and contribution to this work. Dr. Kenneth Hendricks provided invaluable guidance and advice on my research; Dr. You Seok Son has been a great supporter for doing research and understanding the electricity industry.

Equilibrium in Wholesale Electricity Markets
We develop game theoretic models to evaluate strategic behavior in deregulated electricity markets, with particular attention given to the market rules in place in California through the summer of 2000. We prove existence of a Nash equilibrium under two particular sets of market rules used by the CALPX and CAISO respectively. Next we derive a lower bound (strictly above marginal cost) on averag...
متن کاملA Game Theoretic Approach for Sustainable Power Systems Planning in Transition
Intensified industrialization in developing countries has recently resulted in huge electric power demand growth; however, electricity generation in these countries is still heavily reliant on inefficient and traditional non-renewable technologies. In this paper, we develop an integrated game-theoretic model for effective power systems planning thorough balancing between supply and demand for e...
متن کاملVariational Inequality Formulation of a Class of Multi-Leader-Follower Games
The multi-leader-follower game can be looked on as a generalization of the Nash equilibrium problem and the Stackelberg game, which contains several leaders and a number of followers. Recently, the multi-leader-follower game has been drawing more and more attention, for example, in electricity power markets. However, when we formulate a general multi-leader-follower game as a single-level game,...
متن کاملCombination of real options and game-theoretic approach in investment analysis
Investments in technology create a large amount of capital investments by major companies. Assessing such investment projects is identified as critical to the efficient assignment of resources. Viewing investment projects as real options, this paper expands a method for assessing technology investment decisions in the linkage existence of uncertainty and competition. It combines the game-theore...
متن کاملUsing EPECs to Model Bilevel Games in Restructured Electricity Markets with Locational Prices
We study a bilevel noncooperative game-theoretic model of restructured electricity markets, with locational marginal prices. Each player in this game faces a bilevel optimization problem that we model as a mathematical program with equilibrium constraints, MPEC. The corresponding game is an example of an equilibrium problem with equilibrium constraints, EPEC. We establish sufficient conditions ...
