Gone with the wind? : electricity market prices and incentives to invest in thermal power plants under increasing wind energy supply
Traber, Thure (contributor); Kemfert, Claudia (contributor) - 2009
The increased wind energy supplied to many electricity markets around the world has to be balanced by reliable back up units or other complementary measures when wind conditions are low. At the same time wind energy impacts both, the utilization of thermal power plants and the market prices....

Wind power integration, negative prices and power system flexibility : an empirical analysis of extreme events in Germany
Nicolosi, Marco - 2010 - [Rev]
This article analyses the flexibility of the German power market with respect to the integration of an increasing share of electricity from renewable energy sources. Flexibility limiting system components, which cause negative prices are explained and illustrated for the German market. Then, the...

Control power and variable renewables a glimpse at German data
Hirth, Lion; Ziegenhagen, Inka - 2013
Control power (regulating power, balancing power) is used to quickly restore the supply-demand balance in power systems. Variable renewable energy sources (VRE) such as wind and solar power are often thought to increase the reserve requirement significantly. This paper provides a comprehensive...

Wind Providing Balancing Reserves : An Application to the German Electricity System of 2025
Lorenz, Casimir - 2017
This paper analyzes the influence of wind turbines as new participants on prices and allocation within balancing markets. We introduce the cost-minimizing electricity sector model ELMOD-MIP, that includes detailed unit-commitment constraints, complex combined heat and power constraints, and...

Efficient spatial allocation of wind power plants given environmental externalities due to turbines and grids
Grimsrud, Kristine M.; Hagem, Cathrine; Lind, Arne; … - 2020
Negative environmental externalities associated with wind power plants depend on the physical characteristics of turbine installations and associated power lines and the geographical siting. We derive analytically an environmental taxation scheme for achieving the efficient spatial distribution...
