◮ Revenues from selling electricity
◮ Inframarginal rents to cover fix costs
◮ Eroded profitability due to reduced load factors and prices ◮ Missing Money Problem
◮ Large integration of RES (mostly offering at zero marginal cost) ◮ Merit order effect (Reduced prices & reduced load factors)
◮ Lack of investment in generation capacity ◮ Disvestment of existing capacity
Variable Cost t Price e/MWh Inframarginal rent Coverage variable cost

◮ New investments derive from financial incentives ◮ Deration factor of capacity:
availability in times of scarcity, technology & flexibility Easy to implement and easy to phase out Direct support of specific technologies possible Very steady revenue stream × Assumptions about investment response × Level of payment subject to political discussion × Implemented with a consumption-independent use of charge for final consumer

◮ Capacity introduced as new commodity ◮ Demand of capacity determined by authority ◮ System Operator procures capacity (centralized) ◮ LSEs procure capacity acoording to their share of demand
(decentralized)
◮ Cost are allocated to the consumers
Amount of capacity is directly set by the authority Market-based CRM × Change of current market design → Effort for Implementation and Administration × Tracking and Verification of Capacity by System Operator

◮ Emergency capacity held by the system operator ◮ Contracted capacity taken out of the market ◮ System operator determines activation
→ In times of critical scarcity or for redispatching If market proves efficient, influence of strategic reserve minimal Easy to implement, only small changes Flexible tool in size and activation × Incorrect activation lead to market distortion × Does not address flexibility issue from RES × Price of strategic reserve forms price cap in the market
