Proposta de uma nova abordagem na formação de preços em mercados de eletricidade com características hidrotérmicas: o despacho por oferta no sistema elétrico brasileiro

Abstract

The research comprehensively addresses the challenge of establishing optimal pricesetting strategies in competitive electricity markets with a predominant hydroelectric profile, considering the characteristics of the Brazilian market. The proposal suggests modeling the uncertainties faced by generators at the time of their bids, emphasizing the need to make optimal decisions under conditions of uncertainty. Additionally, the research evaluates the impact of strategic price offers on market power and emphasizes the importance of efficient market power mitigation mechanisms. Considering the risks to the reliability of the Brazilian electrical system, the research suggests implementing mitigation mechanisms before adopting a price offer scheme. Finally, it emphasizes the need to reassess strategies and analyses in light of potential changes in the price-setting and dispatch processes in the new model being discussed within the Brazilian electricity sector.
