introduction despite the abundant renewable energy sources, the iranian energy sector relies almost entirely on fossil fuel energy resources. power sector is dominant source of co2emissions and responsible for about 35% of total co2 emissions in the country. additionally, long-term electricity demand of iran is expected to grow quickly, which in turn requires extensive investment to meet the gr...

This paper presents a location–price equilibrium problem on a tree. A sufficient condition for having a Nash equilibrium in a spatial competition model that incorporates price, transport, and externality costs is given. This condition implies both competitors are located at the same point, a vertex that is the unique median of the tree. However, this is not an equilibrium necessary condition. S...

A marketing system is efficient if it able to deliver production results consumers at the lowest possible cost and relatively even margins actors involved. But in reality, when surplus while demand not, causes market mechanism produce price distortions. This study aims analyze rice with an organizational approach (market trends, functions, elasticity). The data obtained from relevant authoritie...

This paper studies optimal Ramsey taxation when risk sharing in private insurance markets is imperfect due to limited enforcement. In a limited commitment economy, there are externalities associated with capital and labor because individuals do not take into account that their labor and saving decisions affect aggregate labor and capital supply and wages, and thus the value of autarky. Therefor...

The optimal contract design for cloud computing service with resource guarantee under the consideration of resource redundancy and network externality is studied in this research. A model in which a service provider determines joint pricing and resource allocation decisions is constructed by proposing two types of contracts with different service-level agreements (SLAs). The SLA of each contrac...

An auction is said to be externality-robust if unilateral deviations from equilibrium leave the remaining bidders’ payoffs unaffected. The equilibrium and its outcome will then persist even if externalities between bidders arise from certain types of interdependent preferences. One important example are externalities due to spiteful preferences, which are frequently used to explain overbidding ...

Real-time pricing schemes make the customers to feel the energy price volatility and improve their load profiles. However, these schemes have no significant effect on demand-side uncertainty reduction. In this paper, considering smart grid infrastructures and smart building Energy Management System (EMS), a new real-time pricing scheme is presented to reduce the uncertainty of demand-side. In t...

In Beijing, China, the rational consumption of energy is affected by the insufficient linkage mechanism of the energy pricing system, the unreasonable price ratio and other issues. This paper combines the characteristics of Beijing’s energy market, putting forward the society-economy equilibrium indicator R maximization taking into consideration the mitigation cost to determine a reasonable pri...

Demand response has gained significant attention in recent years as it demonstrates potentials to enhance the power system’s operational flexibility in a cost-effective way. Industrial loads such as aluminum smelters, steel manufacturers, cement plants, and air separation units demonstrate advantages in supporting power system operation through demand response programs, because of their intensi...
