ABSTRACT: The existing electricity market design challenges the fair and competitive participation of variable renewable energy sources (vRES) due to their weather dependence and limited forecasting accuracy, especially for long-time horizons, as required in the day-ahead market (DAM). These challenges impact market clearing prices and create imbalances, leading to inefficiencies, such as market-splitting event...

Dynamic Line Rating Models and Their Potential for a Cost-Effective Transition ...

Estanqueiro, Ana; Algarvio, Hugo; Couto, António; Michiorri, Andrea; Salas, Sergio; Pudjianto, Danny; Hagglund, Per; Dobschinski, Jan; Bolgaryn, Roman

ABSTRACT: Most transmission system operators (TSOs) currently use seasonally steady-state models considering limiting weather conditions that serve as reference to compute the transmission capacity of overhead power lines. The use of dynamic line rating (DLR) models can avoid the construction of new lines, market splitting, false congestions, and the degradation of lines in a cost-effective way. DLR can also be...

ABSTRACT: The goal of a carbon-neutral society by 2050 is speeding up the integration of variable renewable energy sources (vRES) in European power systems. For the expected levels of vRES, the adaptation of the demand will be crucial to manage the stochastic behaviour of these technologies. This work evaluates the impact of four prospective 2050 energy mix scenarios in the Iberian electricity market. All scena...

Algarvio, Hugo; Couto, António; Estanqueiro, Ana

ABSTRACT: The 2050 global ambition for a carbon-neutral society is increasing the penetration of the most competitive variable renewable technologies, onshore wind and solar PV. These technologies are known for their near-zero marginal costs but highly variable time-dependent generation. Power systems with major penetrations of variable generation need high balancing flexibility to guarantee their stability by ...

Report 2023 : Portugal

Couto, António; Simões, Teresa; Costa, Paula Silva; Estanqueiro, Ana

ABSTRACT: In 2023, the new installed wind power capacity amounted to 159 MW. This capacity refers to overcapacity procedures, building on existing sites. Important milestones were attained by the ministerial working group created by the Portuguese government to accelerate the offshore wind market, expecting a total installed capacity of 10 GW.

Reduction of the Market Splitting Occurrences: A Dynamic Line Rating Approach f...

Algarvio, Hugo; Couto, António; Estanqueiro, Ana; Carvalho, Rui; Santos, Gabriel; Faia, Ricardo; Faria, Pedro; Vale, Zita

ABSTRACT: Typically, Transmission System Operators apply power flow models with Seasonal Line Rating prescriptions to compute the ampacity of power lines, in a process that enables to obtain the cross-border capacity for trading between different countries or market zones. These seasonal-dependent models rely on fixed conservative meteorological conditions throughout the year, underestimating the real-time tran...

Algarvio, Hugo; Couto, António; Lopes, Fernando; Estanqueiro, Ana

ABSTRACT: The liberalization of energy retail markets empowered consumers with the ability to be part of new emerging entities, such as Citizen Energy Communities. With the increasing penetration of decentralized variable generation, communities have the advantage of incentive local carbon neutrality and sustainability. Local generation reduces transport grid usage and costs to consumers. Furthermore, worldwide...
