• Balancing Market Integration - Model-Based Analysis of Potential Cross-Border Reserve Exchange Between Norway and Germany 

      Bellenbaum, Julia; Weber, Christoph; Doorman, Gerard L.; Farahmand, Hossein (Journal article, 2018)
      Integrating balancing markets across borders bears a cost-reducing potential but requires the availability of transmission capacity for the eventual activation of committed reserves. Using scarce transmission capacity for ...
    • Evaluating Modelling Approaches for State-Dependent Environmental Constraints in Medium-Term Hydropower Scheduling 

      Børresen, Sofie Aandahl; Schaffer, Linn Emelie (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      This paper addresses the inclusion of state - dependent environmental constraints in medium-term scheduling of hydropower plants with reservoirs. The reservoir handling and release plans of hydropower production can lead ...
    • Flexibility Assessment Through Local Energy Consumer 

      Oleinikova, Irina; Mutule, Anna (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      The paper describes modelling experience in flexibility assessment for local energy consumer. Energy Management System strategies were carried out in order to facilitate pricebased demand response for future implementation ...
    • Hybrid AC/DC-OPF ADMM model for TSO coordination with multiple DSOs in Flexibility Market 

      Ivanko, Dmytro; Vågane, Ine Solsvik; Hashemipour, Seyed Naser; Oleinikova, Irina; Crespo del Granado, Pedro Andres; Farahmand, Hossein (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Unlocking potential from flexibility assets is an effective way to address power grid challenges. Proper coordination between transmission and distribution system operators (TSO and DSOs) is key to achieving this goal. ...
    • The impact of Flow-Based Market Coupling on the Nordic region 

      Bø, Andreas Hovde; Kallset, Vegard Viken; Oleinikova, Irina; Farahmand, Hossein; Refsnæs, Karl Ludvig (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The primary objective of capacity calculation is to reflect physical transmission limits in the power grid into limits on commercial trades at the electricity markets. The Nordic capacity calculation methodology is currently ...
    • Opportunity-cost-pricing of reserves for a simple hydropower system 

      Aasgård, Ellen Krohn; Roti, Pål Henrik (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      This work investigates the cost of delivering different types of balancing reserves from a simple hydropower reservoir system. In addition to delivering energy, the fast ramping characteristics of hydropower units makes ...
    • Price elasticity of electricity demand in metropolitan areas – Case of Oslo 

      Hofmann, Matthias; Lindberg, Karen Byskov (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      This paper investigates how the electricity demand in the main Norwegian metropolitan area Oslo responds to variable electricity prices and if it contributes to lower peak demand for electricity. The electricity demand in ...
    • The impact of electrification on power system in Northern Europe 

      Cheng, Xiaomei; Korpås, Magnus; Farahmand, Hossein (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Electrification is widely considered as a viable strategy for reducing the negative environmental impacts of the energy system. Following this strategy, most attention has been paid to electrification of road transportation, ...
    • Utilizing end-user flexibility for demand management under capacity subscription tariffs 

      Bjarghov, Sigurd; Doorman, Gerard L. (Journal article, 2018)
      The Norwegian regulator has proposed a new grid tariff, based on capacity subscription, where the consumer pays an excess fee whenever he exceeds the subscribed level. We compare this tariff with a variant of capacity ...
