Increasing shares of fluctuating renewable energy, the integration of European electricity grids and markets as well as new technologies induce continuous change in the European energy system. Due to these changes, fundamental electricity system and market models that have been developed and...

Strongly increasing costs of congestion management have provoked a discussion in Europe about new approaches to solve grid congestions in a more efficient way. One approach is to design flexibility markets. In this paper we focus on the effects of subsidies for renewable energy on the market...

By interlinking power systems, significant welfare gains can be achieved. However, different approaches for coupling electricity markets exist. A recent development in this field is the implementation of flow-based market coupling (FBMC) in Central Western Europe (CWE). Indeed, FBMC has proven...

Part I of this two-part paper has presented flow-based market coupling (FBMC), the implicit congestion management method used to couple the CentralWestern European (CWE) electricity markets. It has also introduced a large-scale model framework for FBMC assessments, focusing on modeling the...

New and alternative delimitations of price zones for Central Western Europe (CWE) might constitute a mid-term solution to cope with the increasing congestion in the electricity transmission grids. The significantly growing infeed from renewable energy sources puts more and more pressure on the...
