AbstractThis 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.

Stochastic programming models for optimal bid strategies in the Iberian Electricity Market

Publication TypeConference Paper

Conference NameThe 20th International Symposium of Mathematical Programming (ISMP)

Type of WorkInvited oral presentation
Key Wordsresearch; stochastic programming; electricity markets; day-ahead market; bilateral contracts; futures contracts; optimal bid
AbstractThe 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.

Lectura de dos PFC's a la DE sobre oferta òptima als mercats d'energia elèctrica.

El passat dijous 9 de juliol de 2009 es va llegir el Projecte Final de Carrera dels alumnes Silvia Nieto i Ivan Ruz, que portava per títol "Estudi i optimització de l’oferta al Mercat Ibèric ’Electricitat (MIBEL)", dirigit pel professor Javier Heredia. Els objectius del treball han estat:


  • Fer una descriptiva de les dades obtingudes de les energies tèrmiques per veure el comportament que hi tenen.
  • Entendre el model d'optimització d'oferta presentat a l'article [1], i compendre la seva implementació.
  • Entendre el model d'optimització d'oferta de l'article [2] i resoldre una nova modelització adaptant aquest model a l'anterior fent els canvis pertinents.
  • Comparar els dos models i treure'n conclusions sobre quin és el més eficient.

AbstractThe 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.
