Summary Market power assessment is an important aspect of electricity market analysis and operation. This paper aims to analyze the impact of generation technologies and their ownership structure on the potential of market power in a short‐term period. The technological features of hydro and thermal power plants, such as upper and lower production limits, as well as ramp up and down rates are considered. Additionally, wind production uncertainty is modeled with considering spatiotemporal correlation among diverse wind farms. To evaluate the potential of the market power, 2 market concentration boundary problems are solved. These 2 problems seek to find minimum and maximum values of a market concentration measure, while considering operational constraints of a day‐ahead market clearing problem. The results through an IEEE 24‐bus Reliability Test System demonstrate that both boundaries of market concentration move down by greater number of generation owners. Additionally, the upper boundary of the market concentration can be reduced by a more diversified ownership of wind power capacity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
