Abstract:
In power system analysis, uncertainties in the supplier side are often difficult to estimate and have a substantial impact on the result of the analysis. This thesis includes preliminary work to approach the difficulties. In the first part, a specific electricity auction mechanism based on a Japanese power market is investigated analytically from several game theoretic viewpoints. In the second part, electricity auctions are simulated using agent-based modeling.
