Power Transmission Capacity Expansion in a Market Driven Environment with Application to the Italian Electricity Market

We introduce a model intended for the analysis of the upgrade of the national transmission grid which explicitly accounts for responses given by the power generating companies in terms of plant expansion. The problem is modeled as a bilevel program with mixed integer structure in both, upper and lower level. Upper level is defined by the transmission company problem which has to decide on how t...

A leader-followers model of power transmission capacity expansion in a market driven environment

We introduce a model for analyzing the upgrade of the national transmission grid that explicitly accounts for responses given by the power producers in terms of generation unit expansion. The problem is modeled as a bilevel program with a mixed integer structure in both upper and lower level. The upper level is defined by the transmission company problem which has to decide on how to upgrade th...

Research on Competitive Multi-facility Location with Market Expansion

It is critical to locate facilities in the retail operations, especially in competitive environment. In most competitive location models available in the literatures, demand is assumed to be fixed or random regardless of market conditions. However, demand is related to the number of facilities, service capacity or the distance from the facility to the customer, which is considered in few litera...

Locational Prices in Capacity Subscription Market Considering Transmission Limitations

This study focuses on one of the most effective type of capacity markets named Capacity Subscription (CS) market which is predicted to be widely used in the upcoming smart grids. Despite variant researches done about the mechanism and structure of capacity markets, their performances have been rarely tested in the presence of network constraints. Considering this deficiency, we tried to propose...
