Abstract

This paper discusses on an optimal bidding strategy of a generator in a competitive electricity spot market using the information of predicted spot price with some assumptions. Optimal bidding strategy of a generator is derived by solving a profit-maximizing optimization problem with a constraint where the forecasted spot price is treated as a constant value. The main advantage of this methodology is that the optimal bidding strategy of each generator can be obtained independently where the gaming characteristics of generators are merged into the forecasted spot price.
