Pricing Mechanisms

The prevailing mechanism for pricing electric energy in US electricity markets operated by Independent System Operators (ISO) is Locational Marginal Prices (LMP), defined as the incremental (least) cost of supplying a marginal MW of power to the specific location while meeting all security constraints

The Efficient Market Hypothesis

slide-16
SLIDE 16

Our Approach

  • Use the perspective of a trader attempting to construct

an optimal portfolio of virtual hourly positions.

  • Construct and estimate a statistical time series model of the

returns from historical data

  • Obtain an optimal portfolio (based on appropriate constraints
  • n risk)
  • Evaluate the arbitrage profits of the optimal portfolio using in

sample and out of sample data

  • Asses market efficiency based on profitable arbitrage
  • pportunity.
  • Alternative approach proposed by Jha and Wolak

[2013] was based on evaluating the “implied trading cost” for which one cannot reject the null hyphotesis of “no arbitrage” (based on average return = uniform portfolio assumption )
