In this paper we look at the relative merits of two capacity utilization regimes in the merchant electricity transmission network: Must offer (Mo) where the entire capacity installed is made available for transmission and Non Must Offer (NMo) where some capacity could be withheld. We look at two...

In this paper we estimate the benefits resulting from interconnecting the Italian electricity spot market. The market is currently divided into two geographic zones – North and South – with limited interzonal transmission capacity that often induces congestion, and hence potential...

We estimate the bene ts resulting from completely interconnecting the Italian electricity spot market. The market is currently divided into two geographic zones - North and South - with limited interzonal transmission capacity that often induces congestion, and hence potential inefficiency. By...

We estimate the benefits (in terms of savings to end-users) resulting from an improved interconnectivity in the Italian electricity spot market. The market is currently divided into two geographic zones - North and South - with limited inter-zonal transmission capacity that often induces...
