Abstract | This study has developed a stochastic programming model that integrates the day-ahead optimal bidding problem with the most recent regulation rules of the Iberian Electricity Market (MIBEL) for bilateral contracts (BC), with a special consideration for the new mechanism to balance the competition of the production market, namely virtual power plant (VPP) auctions. The model allows a price-taking generation company (GenCo) to decide on the unit commitment of the thermal units, the economic dispatch of the BCs between the thermal units and the generic programming unit (GPU), and the optimal sale/purchase bids for all units (thermal and generic), by observing the MIBEL regulation. The uncertainty of the spot prices has been represented through scenario sets built from the most recent real data using scenario reduction techniques. The model has been solved using real data from a Spanish generation company and spot prices, and the results have been reported and analyzed. |

Abstract | This paper developed a stochastic programming model that integrated the most recent regulation rules of the Spanish peninsular system for bilateral contracts in the dayahead optimal bid problem. Our model allows a price-taker generation company to decide the unit commitment of the thermal and combined cycle programming units, the economic dispatch of the BC between all the programming units and the optimal sale bid by observing the Spanish peninsular regulation. The model was solved using real data of a typical generation company and a set of scenarios for the Spanish market price. The results are reported and analyzed. |

Abstract | The day-ahead market is not only the main physical energy market of Portugal and Spain in terms of the amount of traded energy, but also the mechanism through which other energy products, as bilateral (BC) and physical futures contracts (FC), are integrated into the Iberian Electricity Market (MIBEL) energy production system. We propose stochastic programming models that give the optimal bidding and BC and FC nomination strategy for a price-taker generation company in the MIBEL. Implementation details and some first computational experiences for small real cases are presented. |

Abstract | The reorganization of the electricity industry in Spain completed a new step with the start-up of the Derivatives Market. One main characteristic of MIBEL’s Derivatives Market is the existence of physical futures contracts; they imply the obligation to settle physically the energy. The market regulation establishes the mechanism for including those physical futures in the day-ahead bidding of the Generation Companies. The goal of this work is to optimize coordination between physical futures contracts and the Day-Ahead bidding which follow this regulation. We propose a stochastic quadratic mixed-integer programming model which maximizes the expected profits, taking into account futures contracts settlement. The model gives the simultaneous optimization for the Day-Ahead Market bidding strategy and power planning production (unit commitment) for the thermal units of a price-taker Generation Company. The uncertainty of the day-ahead market price is included in the stochastic model through a set of scenarios. Implementation details and some first computational experiences for small real cases are presented. |

Abstract | In this paper we develop a decision support procedure for a Price-Taker producer operating on Day- Ahead and Physical Derivatives Electricity Markets. The management of the electricity generation companies and their operation in the liberalized electricity market on a short-term horizon is an interesting problem in continuous evolution. Specifically, the incorporation of the Electricity Derivatives Market is the natural improvement in the Electricity Day-Ahead Markets in most countries in the world. Therefore, the inclusion of the management of derivatives products in generation company models is also a natural improvement of them. In this work, the derivatives products studied are the futures contracts. |
