Name of the research project
Energy and capacity
Head(s)
Prof.ssa Sara BIAGINI
Summary description of the project
The goal of this two years project is the study of the newborn capacity markets.
Hereby we propose an innovative approach to the problems, in a dynamic setup and with interplay among the economics agents, namely producers and retailers.
Both types of agents face an utility maximization problem, to be solved via a blend of dynamic programming and duality techniques.
The study of optimal strategies will reveal information on the structure of the relation between the capacity price and the energy price.
The existence of Nash equilibria will lead to an equilibrium solution for the capacity price, and also will lead to the confirmation or modification of the actual incentives/penalties system.
Thus, we expect both theoretical results on the resolutions of the problems, and relevant applied results, given the nature of the project itself.
