电力市场中的投标策略

在电力市场环境下，发电公司可通过采用策略性的投标来取得最大利润。另一方面，市场调节或监管机构(regulator)需要评估发电公司的策略性投标行为，考察滥用市场力(market power)的可能性，以确定适当的市场结构和管理规则，确保市场竞争。这样，研究最优的投标策略是发电公司和市场调节机构都感兴趣的课题。近几年中，这方面的研究工作相当活跃，发表了数十篇论文。文中对这一领域的研究工作进行简要的综述。

BIDDING STRATEGIES IN ELECTRICITY MARKETS

In an electricity market. power suppliers can maximize profits through strategic hidding. while it is also necessaryfor regulators to investigate such strategic bidding behavior so as to identify possible market power abuse and to limit suchabuse by introducing appropliate market management rules. A consideTable amount of literature has been produced on thissubject in recent years. and this motivates our effort to make a comprehensive literature survey in this paper based on morethan 30 research publications. It is expected that this survey will provide access to state of --the art analysis. and welldocumented material for researchers and engineers abollt this important research topic.This project is jointly supported by Research Fund of Hong Kong Polytechnic University and Zhejiang ProvincialFoundation for Outstanding Young Scientists.
