A dynamic incentive mechanism for transmission expansion in electricity networks : theory, modeling, and application
Rosellón, Juan; Weigt, Hannes - 2010
We propose a price-cap mechanism for electricity-transmission expansion based on redefining transmission output in terms of financial transmission rights. Our mechanism applies the incentive-regulation logic of rebalancing a two-part tariff. First, we test this mechanism in a three-node network....

Long-run cost functions for electricity transmission
Rosellón, Juan; Vogelsang, Ingo; Weigt, Hannes - 2010
Electricity transmission has become the pivotal industry segment for electricity restructuring. Yet, little is known about the shape of transmission cost functions. Reasons for this can be a lack of consensus about the definition of transmission output and the complexitity of the relationship...

A profit-maximizing approach for transmission expansion planning using a revenue-cap incentive mechanism
Hesamzadeh, Mohammad Reza; Rosellón, Juan; Gabriel, … - 2015
This paper proposes an incentive mechanism for transmission expansion planning. The mechanism is a bilevel program. The upper level is a profit-maximizing transmission company (Transco) which expands its transmission system while endogenously predicts and influences the generation investment....

Idiosyncratic risk and the cost of capital : the case of electricity networks
Schober, Dominik; Schäffler, Stephan; Weber, Christoph - 2014
We analyze the treatment and impact of idiosyncratic or firm-specific risk in regulation. Regulatory authorities regularly ignore firm-specific characteristics, such as size or asset ages, implying different risk exposure in incentive regulation. In contrast, it is common to apply only a single...

Regulation and third party discrimination in vertically related markets : the case of German electricity
Brunekreeft, Gert - 2001 - Revised Version - March 2001
This paper explores the relation between the regulation of monopolistic upstream prices and the incentives of a vertically integrated input monopolist to discriminate third parties on the downstream market. Currently, this is an issue in network industries like telecommunications, electricity...

Toward a Combined Merchant-Regulatory Mechanism for Electricity Transmission Expansion
Hogan, William W. - 2010
Electricity transmission pricing and transmission grid expansion have received increasing regulatory and analytical attention in recent years. Since electricity transmission is a very special service with unusual characteristics, such as loop flows, the approaches have been largely tailor-made...
