• The three-zone market using flow based constraints

In this post, we revisit the three-zone market and examine how the results change when physical realities, such as network impedances, are taken into account. We also introduce a new concept: a zone-internal congestion point (a.k.a. a “CNEC”). This internal bottleneck can lead to price splitting, and non-intuitive flows, even when there’s no congestion between zones.

• Balance power contributors in the pan-European power system

With the increasing amount of renewable and weather-dependent power, firming or balancing power becomes more important. The question is: which are the major contributing balancing power sources in the pan-European power system

I den här blogposten görs en djupdykning i EF (“Elektrifiering Förnybart”) och EP (“Elektrifiering Planerbart”) scenarierna från Svenska Kraftnäts senaste rapport, “Långsiktig marknadsanalys 2024“, LMA2024.

• A simple model for comparing the costs of offshore wind power and nuclear power

Offshore wind power and nuclear power are both complex and costly animals. Both are proposed to provide power in bulk to many regions. Just based on LCOE for each power type, offshore wind power has the upper hand based on a slightly lower LCOE in general. But what happens if we try to include balancing costs as well?
