Bidding Strategies in Austrian and German Balancing Power Auctions
In the current Austrian and German market design, suppliers submit a three-dimensional bid that consists of a power offer (MW), a power bid (Euro/MW) and an energy bid (Euro/MWh). The scoring rule, which determines the winners of the auction, is based on the power bid exclusively, and pay-as-bid pricing is applied, i.e., an awarded bidder receives the bid figure.
Shedding New Light on Accidents caused by Kerosene Lamps
Kerosene lamps in the household are thought to cause millions of accidents every year, but a new study reveals that interventions proposed to improve kerosene safety might not have the intended impact.
Role of Fault Ride-Through Strategies for Power Grids
