Simulation Model for Evaluation of Deregulation Effects in Electric Power System

Tetsuo Tezuka, Hidekazu Yoshikawa
Abstract

Deregulation in a power-supply system which includes photovoltaic power generation systems and/or co­generation systems, is indispensable for making the system more efficient and ro­ bust. Effectiveness of deregulation measures have been analysed from the viewpoint of micro-economics and game theory which are normative approaches based on rather sim­plified models of the real system. How­ever, long-term and short-term stability of the system, for example, cannot be eval­uated without more detailed model struc­ture. This paper discusses effectiveness of a simulation-model approach for evaluating the behaviour of the deregulated market.
