Abstract (EN):
Power industry has been deeply restructured in
recent decades. Along this period vertically integrated structures
evolved to more disaggregated models in which some activities
are now provided under competition as generation and retailing
while some others are provided under regulated monopolies as
network transmission and distribution. Simultaneously, most
countries started to encourage the use of renewable sources,
namely to cope with environmental issues and to enlarge the
energy independency. Having in mind these ideas and given the
development of the Iberian Electricity Market and the increase
of the installed capacity in units paid by feed-in tariffs, it
becomes important to estimate the impact of this feed-in
generation in the market prices. This paper describes the
approach that was developed to estimate this impact and the
implemented software application. This application was then
used to evaluate the impact on prices on all trading hours of
2013 of the Portuguese photovoltaic generation, the Portuguese
wind generation, all the Portuguese feed-in generation and also
all the Iberian feed-in generation.
