Constant evolving sets of institutions, procedures, social relations and infrastructures Markets with different purposes:

  • Day-ahead, Intra day,

Forward, Futures

  • Meeting expected demand,

ensuring system reliability, hedging market risk Market structure and pricing:

  • Perfect competition
  • Oligopoly
  • (Monopoly)

Changing boundaries:

  • Physical interconnections
  • Harmonization of different

power exchanges

From the simplistic: Extrapolation of historical averages … To the complex: Use of advanced formal models for prediction

Background Research question Methodology Future timeline

From the simplistic:

  • Aggregated rational agent(s)
  • ptimizing expected

profitability in the UK market

  • given a budget and policy

constraint … To the complex:

  • Differentiated firms
  • Managing varying interests

across multiple industries and geographies

  • With different ability to access

funds and lobbying power
