Increasing Or Diversifying Risk?Tail Correlations, Transmission Flows And Prices Across Wind Power Areas
Sucarrat, Genaro; Mauritzen, Johannes (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)As wind power costs have declined, capacity has grown quickly, often times in adjacent areas. Price and volatility risk from wind power's intermittency can be mitigated through geographic diversification and transmission. ... -
Real‐time versus day‐ahead market power in a hydro‐based electricity market
Mauritzen, Johannes; Tangerås, Thomas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)This paper develops a theoretical framework to analyze the link between real‐time and day‐ahead competition in a hydro‐based wholesale electricity market. Predictions of the model are tested on a detailed data set of trades ... -
The effect of oil prices on field production: evidence from the Norwegian continental shelf
