Effects of the Transmission Network

on Electricity Markets

2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington

1
Introduction
No longer assume that all generators and loads are
connected to the same bus
Need to consider:
Congestion, constraints on flows
Losses
Two forms of trading
Bilateral or decentralized trading
Pool or centralized trading

2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington 2


Bilateral or decentralized trading

Transactions involves only buyer and seller


Agree on price, quantity and other conditions
System operator
Does not get involved directly in trading
Maintains balance and security of the system
Buys or sells limited amounts of energy to keep load and
generation in balance
Limits the amount of power that generators can inject at
some nodes if security cannot be ensured by other means

2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington 3


Example of bilateral trading
Bus A Bus B

G1 L1

G2 L2

G3
G1 sold 300 MW to L1
G2 sold 200 MW to L2
Prices are a private matter
Quantities must be reported to system operator so it can check
security

2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington 4


Example of bilateral trading
Bus A Bus B

G1 L1

G2 L2

G3
G1 sold 300 MW to L1
G2 sold 200 MW to L2
If capacity of corridor 500 MW No problem
If capacity of corridor < 500 MW some of these transactions
may have to be curtailed

2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington 5


But curtail which one?
Could use administrative procedures
These procedures consider:
Firm vs. non-firm transactions
Order in which they were registered
Historical considerations
Do not consider relative economic benefits
Economically inefficient
Better to let the participants themselves decide what makes
sense
Participants should purchase right to use the network
when arranging a trade in energy
Physical transmission rights
Support actual transmission of power over a given link
2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington 6
Physical transmission rights
Bus A Bus B

G1 L1

G2 L2

G3
G1 sold 300 MW to L1 at 30 $/MWh
G2 sold 200 MW to L2 at 32 $/MWh
G3 selling energy at 35 $/MWh
L2 should not pay more than 3 $/MWh for transmission rights
L1 should not pay more than 5 $/MWh for transmission rights

2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington 14


Physical rights and parallel paths

Counter-flows create additional physical transmission


rights
Economic efficiency requires that these rights be
considered
Decentralized trading:
System operator only checks overall feasibility
Participants trade physical rights bilaterally
Theory:
Enough participants market discovers optimum
Practice:
Complexity and amount of information involved are such that it is
unlikely that this optimum can be found in time

2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington 15


Physical rights and market power
Bus A Bus B

G1 L1

G2 L2

G3
G3 only generator at bus B
G3 purchases transmission rights from A to B
G3 does not use or resell these rights
Effectively reduces capacity from A to B
Allows G3 to increase price at B
Use them or loose them provision for transmission rights:
difficult to enforce in a timely manner
2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington 16
Centralized or Pool Trading
Producers and consumers submit bids and offers
to a central market
Independent system operator selects the winning
bids and offers in a way that:
Optimally clears the market
Respects security constraints imposed by the network
No congestion and no losses: uniform price
Congestion or losses: price depend on location
where generator or load is connected

2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington 17


Borduria-Syldavia Interconnection
Borduria Syldavia

DB= 500MW DS= 1500 MW

Perfect competition within each country


No congestion or losses within each country

Constrained transmission
What if the interconnection can carry only 400
MW?

Winners and Losers
Winners:

Losers
Bordurian consumers
Syldavian generators
Congestion in the interconnection reduces these
benefits

2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington 28


Congestion surplus
Consumer payments:
E TOTAL = p B DB + p S D S
Producers revenues:
RTOTAL = p B PB + p S PS = p B ( D B + FBS ) + p S ( D S - F BS )
Congestion or merchandising surplus:
E TOTAL - R TOTAL = p S D S + p B DB - p S P S - p B PB
= p S ( D S - P S ) + p B ( DB - P B )
= p S F BS + p B ( - F BS )
= ( p S - p B ) F BS
2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington 29
Congestion surplus

2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington 30


Congestion surplus

Collected by the market operator in pool trading


Should not be kept by market operator in pool
trading because it gives a perverse incentive
Should not be returned directly to network users
because that would blunt the economic incentive
provided by nodal pricing

Observations
Generators A and D are marginal generators
because they supply the next MW of load at the
bus where they are located
Generators B and C are not marginal
Unconstrained system: 1 marginal generator
m constraints: m+1 marginal generators
Prices at nodes where there is no marginal
generator are set by a linear combination of the
prices at the other nodes

Prices at nodes without a marginal generator can


be higher or lower than prices at the other nodes
Nodal prices can even be negative!
Predicting nodal prices requires calculations
Strategically placed generators can control prices

One-bus network
D Total demand of the consumers
P Total production of the generators
B(D) Consumers benefit function

Network of infinite capacity with losses

I k = Pk - Dk : net injection at bus k


Network creates economic welfare by allowing trades between
nodes with positive injections and nodes with negative injections

Managing transmission risks

Congestion and losses affect nodal prices


Additional source of uncertainty and risk
Market participants seek ways of avoiding risks
Need financial instruments to deal with nodal
price risk

2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington 77


Contracts for difference

Centralized market
Producers must sell at their nodal price
Consumers must buy at their nodal price
Producers and consumers are allowed to enter
into bilateral financial contracts
Contracts for difference

2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington 78

Contract between Borduria Power and Syldavia Steel


Quantity: 400 MW

B = 24.30 $/MWh S = 24.30 $/MWh


Borduria Power sells 400 at 24.30 gets $9,720
Syldavia Steel buys 400 at 24.30 pays $9,720
Syldavia Steel pays 400 (30 - 24.30) = $2,280 to Borduria Power
Syldavia Steels net cost is $12,000
Borduria Powers net revenue is $12,000
They have effectively traded 400 MW at 30 $/MWh

Syldavia Steel buys 400 at 35.00 pays $14,000
Borduria Power expects 400 (30 -19) = $4,400 from Syldavia Steel
Syldavia Steel expects 400 (35 -30) = $2,000 from Borduria Power
Shortfall of $6,400
Basic contracts for difference break down with nodal pricing!

Financial Transmission Rights (FTR)
Observations:
Shortfall in contracts for difference is equal to congestion
surplus
Congestion surplus is collected by the system operator
Concept:
System operator sells financial transmission rights to users
FTR contract for F MW between Borduria and Syldavia entitles
the owner to receive: F ( p S - p B )

Holders of FTRs are indifferent about where they trade energy


System operator collects exactly enough money in congestion
surplus to cover the payments to holders of FTRs

Syldavia Steel buys 400 at 35.00 pays $14,000
The system operator collects 400 (35 -19) = $ 6,400 in congestion surplus
Borduria Power collects 400 (35 -19) = $6,400 from the system operator
Borduria Power pays Syldavia Steel 400 (35 -30) = $2,000
Syldavia Steel net cost is $12,000
Borduria power net revenue is $12,000 The books balance!
2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington 84
Financial transmission rights (FTR)
FTRs provide a perfect hedge against variations in nodal
prices
Auction transmission rights for the maximum
transmission capacity of the network
The system operator cannot sell more transmission rights than
the amount of power that it can deliver
If it does, it will lose money!
Proceeds of the auction help cover the investment costs
of the transmission network
Users of FTRs must estimate the value of the rights they
buy at auction

2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington 85


Financial transmission rights
FTRs are defined from point-to-point
No need for a direct branch connecting directly the points
between which the FTRs are defined
FTRs automatically factor in the effect of Kirchoffs
voltage law
Problem:
There are many possible point-to-point transmission rights
Difficult to assess the value of all possible rights
Difficult to set up a market for point-to-point transmission rights

2011 D. Kirschen and the University of Washington 86


Flowgate rights
Observation:
Typically, only a small number of branches are congested
Concept:
Buy transmission rights only on those lines that are congested
Theoretically equivalent to point-to-point rights
Advantage:
Fewer rights need to be traded
More liquid market
Difficulty:
Identify the branches that are likely to be congested
