Abstract

This paper presents a new method to determine the optimal demand function for a retailer in power markets. It assumes that the retailer purchases the energy from either the day-ahead or the regulation market and sells it to the end users through fixed and/or real-time pricing contracts. The load is assumed to be price sensitive and the retailer to be price-taker. Through participation in the market and managing its risk, the retailer attempts to maximize its profit. The proposed method is tested on a typical power market.
