Transmission cost allocation and network usage in case of indirect power transfers

Abstract

Transmission corridors are considered to be an optimal integration solution into a common electricity market. Power exchanges between systems are achieved through another interconnected system and may cause congestion in transmission networks. This paper is focusing on transmission cost allocation to market participants in case of indirect power exchanges through an interconnected power system. Case study refers to a real system, represented by West, South-West and 1orth-West parts of the Romanian Power System.
