This paper presents a mixed-integer linear programming (LP) formulation for the long-term transmission expansion planning problem in competitive pool-based electricity market. To achieve optimal while modeling market functioning, we define number of scenarios based on future demand system and simulate maximization aggregate social welfare. Investment operating costs, losses generator offers, bids are considered. We propose to use set metrics rate effect generators, demands, as whole. The...

Massification of Electric vehicles (EVs) is becoming a worldwide reality as means to combat climate change and local pollution. Considering that most the time are in parking places, there an opportunity for using EVs provide some valuable services power network. In particular, can ancillary electricity markets through aggregating agent. To this end, aggregators need develop decision support tools optimally allocate energy regulation resources considering network constraints. Unlike...

Power generation from renewable sources has greatly increased in the last decade. Accordingly, planning of power system expansions must incorporate special features these types energy sources. Long-term transmission expansion usually does not take differences among into account because long period considered. However, modelling may influence optimal plan. In this study, authors propose a methodology for long-term that incorporates costs associated with operation wind plants. particular,...

The target of an oligopolistic generating company in a pool-based electric power market is to maximize its profits using two related instruments at hand: (1) ability modify the market-clearing price; and (2) capability alter own production level. Power balance not issue for company; independent system operator ensures considering generator demand bids through any procedure. This paper proposes mathematical model determine output generators owned by so that profit maximized one-day one-week...

This paper simulates a pool-based electricity market and identifies equilibrium patterns. A multiperiod framework that requires the use of continuous binary variables is considered. Producers can be either price-takers or price-makers, although price-makers their behavior characterize market. The elasticity loads modeled through piecewise constant price-demand curves. operator uses detailed network-constrained market-clearing auction results in hourly prices. participants itself are...
