Popis: | Most literature surrounding optimal bidding strategies for aggregators in European day-ahead market (DAM) considers only hourly orders. While other order types (e.g., block orders) may better represent the temporal characteristics of certain sources of flexibility (e.g., behind-the-meter flexibility), the increased combinations from these orders make it hard to develop a tractable optimization formulation. Thus, our aim in this paper is to develop a tractable optimal offering strategy for flexibility aggregators in the European DAM (a.k.a. Elspot) considering these orders. Towards this, we employ a price-based mechanism of procuring flexibility and place hourly and regular block orders in the market. We develop two mixed-integer bi-linear programs: 1) a brute force formulation for validation and 2) a novel formulation based on logical constraints. To evaluate the performance of these formulations, we proposed a generic flexibility model for an aggregated cluster of prosumers that considers the prosumers' responsiveness, inter-temporal dependencies, and seasonal and diurnal variations. The simulation results show that the proposed model significantly outperforms the brute force model in terms of computation speed. Also, we observed that using block orders has potential for profitability of an aggregator. Comment: 6 pages and 4 figures. Accepted for publishing by IEEE PES ISGT Europe 2022 Conference |
