Intermittency and Pricing Flexibility in Electricity Markets
| 2019:588 | Jūratė Jaraitė, Andrius Kažukauskas, Runar Brännlund, Chandra Kiran, Bengt Kriström
How can increasing intermittent power generation in the Swedish electricity system be managed in a more market-oriented and cost-efficient way?
The authors of this report argue that market mechanisms are the most natural means for obtaining the needed flexibility in electricity systems. A complete ex post assessment of the Swedish wholesale and balancing market functioning is crucial to determine the effectiveness of these markets in attaining their major objectives.
This report identifies knowledge gaps and suggests the most relevant ex post research directions and questions for analysing the Swedish electricity markets in relation to intermittency and pricing flexibility.
