Abstract
This
talk will introduce the mathematical and statistical questions associated
with running a capacity market. It will then summarise recent research on the
modelling of demand and wind generation for capacity adequacy risk assessment
in Great Britain, and on decision criteria for determining the volume to
procure. Finally, it will describe a new theory of how to run a capacity
auction including all resources including storage on a common basis. All
these topics will be illustrated using examples based on the GB system.
Series This talk is part of the Isaac Newton Institute Seminar Series series.
