Analysis tools for the Iberian Electricity Market

September 2012 - September 2013

Funding entity Gas Natural Fenosa


In the last decade there have been significant changes in both present and expected configuration of the generating. From the point of view of the generating function the changes that the high penetration wind and solar is provoking on the production regimes of conventional thermal power (more starts, fewer hours of operation, etc.) are particularly important. All this leads to the conclusion that some details of short-term modeling which have traditionally been neglected in models of medium and long term are more relevant now than before.
The aim of the project is to further develop the planning model previously developed by IIT for Gas Natural Fenosa, oriented to allow for a proper representation of the impact of a significant intermittent generation penetration.
