Abstract

Restructuring of electrical market worldwide has brought the issue of market competition to the forefront. This new perspective has given rise to competition with the goal of price fall and technological innovation in the sector. In the last few years a great deal of attention is given to the possibility of a group of producers agents exercising market power by means of congestion effects. The possibility of two agents acting in a combined way on the Transmission System affecting the accessibility by the others to a specific Market is analyzed. This paper describes an algorithm used to detect measure and evaluate the impact of these kinds of strategic actions on market concentration. The results obtained from the study using 9 bus example network shows that this kind of actions can affect strongly market share and must be predicted by the Independent System Operator ISO.
