Abstract

Growing electricity demand and the need to maintain excess energy capacity and meet peak demand in deregulated markets require attracting new investment and ensuring the reliability of electricity supply. These problems can be solved by differentiating electricity tariffs according to the reliability of its supply, which require taking into account the size of its costs for the creation of generating capacity and the costs of consumers associated with power outages (per 1 kWh). Paper discusses benefitts and drawbacks of these methods, and concludes that the consumer surveys should be used as the main method for assessing the costs of consumers for turning off their electricity, and as a controlling one, the cost of a backup generator (for industrial and commercial consumers) and the amount of hourly wages (for the population). Other factors: duration of the outage, warning time, type of housing and location, gender and age of consumers, the presence of children in the family, consumers' income should also be accounted for.
