How decentralization drives a change of the institutional framework on the distribution grid level in the electricity sector : the case of local congestion markets

Buchmann, Marius - 2019

The increasing share of renewables in the electricity system results in congestion on all network levels. To address this congestion, the EU Commission proposed that distribution network operators become responsible for local congestion management. Within this paper we analyze the institutional...
