This study uses 5-bus and 30-bus test cases to explore ISO net surplus (congestion rent) collections and allocations in wholesale power markets with grid congestion managed by locational marginal prices (LMPs). Price-sensitivity of demand and generator learning capabilities are taken as...

Many critical goods and services in modern-day economies are produced and distributed through complex institutional arrangements. Agent-based computational economics (ACE) modeling tools are capable of handling this degree of complexity. In concrete support of this claim, this study presents an...

The denition of emergence remains problematic, particularly for systemswith purposeful human interactions. This study explores the practical importof this concept within a specic market context: namely, a double-auctionmarket for wholesale electric power that operates over a transmission...

This study uses an agent-based test bed (“AMES”)to investigate separation and volatility of locational marginalprices (LMPs) in an ISO-managed restructured wholesale powermarket operating over an AC transmission grid. Particular attentionis focused on the dynamic and cross-sectional response...
