Many connections between economic efficiency, regulation, the environment and energy markets are evident in the planning for transmission upgrades in an electricity network. Transmission owners have to make decisions about investing in new assets while facing uncertainty in the generation plans, regulatory and environmental constraints, and current system endowments. In this paper, we demonstrate...
When establishing the current deregulated markets for electric energy, many regulators believed that the size of the congestion rents (i.e. the differences in nodal prices times the quantity of energy transferred) would provide the correct incentives for investing in new transmission lines. This rationale for merchant transmission is potentially feasible for transmission lines that are needed mainly...
The Cornell SuperOPF is used to illustrate how the system costs can be determined for a reliable network (the amount of conventional generating capacity needed to maintain System Adequacy is determined endogenously). Eight cases are studied to illustrate the effects of geographical distribution, ramping costs and load response to customers payment in the wholesale market, and the amount of potential...
