    • Market power issues in bid-based hydrothermal dispatch 

      Nobrega Barroso, Luiz Augusto; Fampa, Márcia Helena C.; Kelman, Rafael; Veiga Pereira, Mario; Lino, Priscila Rochinha (01/11/2002)
      The objective of this work is to investigate market power issues in bid-based hydrothermal scheduling. Initially, market power was simulated with a single stage Cournot-Nash equilibrium model. In this static model the ...
