When there are differences in economic value of self-consumed and exported electricity, economic profitable PV installations are dependent of accurate predictions of selfconsumed electricity. In this study, minute based data of PV production and the electricity use were logged in a single family house in Sweden. It is shown that when self-consumed electricity is estimated, a low time resolution...

This paper analyses the evolution of electricity prices in deregulated market. I formulate a model that takes into account the spatial features of a network of a market. The model is applied to equilibrium electricity spot prices of the PJM market. An empirical analysis indicates that the problem of unobserved spatial correlation in the network can be modeled by the Spatial Error Model providin...

When electricity becomes deregulated the price of electricity is not determined by a regulatory authority but by market demand and supply conditions. Electricity cannot be stored and needs to be produced at the same rate at which it is produced. Thus, if any of the cheaper generating units fails a more expensive unit needs to be brought into operation in order to meet the demand. This increased...

This paper proposes a decentralised and privacy-preserving local electricity trading market. The market employs a bidding protocol based on secure multiparty computation and allows users to trade their excess electricity among themselves. The bid selection and trading price calculation are performed in a decentralised and privacy-preserving manner. We implemented the market in C++ and tested it...

Most US consumers are charged a near-constant retail price for electricity, despite substantial hourly variation in the wholesale market price. The Smart Grid is a set of emerging technologies that will facilitate "real-time pricing" for electricity and increase price elasticity of demand. This paper simulates the e¤ects of this increased demand elasticity using counterfactual simulations in a ...

1 Background The Japanese government is conducting electricity system reform in stages and plans to complete this reform by 2020. Historically, all electricity related services in Japan have been overseen by regional monopolistic entities. After the reform is completed, both the wholesale and retail electricity markets will be perfectly competitive, as in most countries in the EU, and many stat...

electricity price predictions have become a major discussion on competitive market under deregulated power system. but, the exclusive characteristics of electricity price such as non-linearity, non-stationary and time-varying volatility structure present several challenges for this task. in this paper, a new forecast strategy based on the iterative neural network is proposed for day-ahead price...

This paper analyzes the absolute convergence of urban electricity productivity in China during 1990–2011, applying Spatial Error Smooth Transition Auto-regression Model, and examines the spatial effect in convergence process. Then it analyzes the stage characteristics of electricity productivity convergence during the process of electricity market reformation and the conditional convergence whi...

Last year’s adoption of the Renewables Directive has provided an important stimulus for EU Member State governments to increase their renewable energy policy efforts, stipulating indicative targets for the consumption of renewable electricity in each of the Member States. This paper uses the recent experiences in the Dutch green certificate market to illustrate the possible interactions between...
