In an unregulated electricity generation market, the capacity of transmission lines will determine the degree to which generators in different locations compete with one another. We show, however, that there may be no relationship between the effect of a transmission line in spurring competition...

The liberalization policies in the eighties and in the nineties governed the transition to market competition in the electricity sector of many countries. However, many of these markets experienced a wave of capacity-related regulatory reforms, driven by a growing concern regarding the capacity...

The paper discusses the dimensioning strategies of two network providers (operators) that supply channels to the same population of users in a competitive environment. Usersare assumed to compete for best service (lowest blocking probability of new request), while operators wishto maximize their...
