Equilibrium prices supported by dual price functions in markets with non-convexities
Bjørndal, Mette; Jörnsten, Kurt (Working Paper, Working paper, 2004-06)The issue of finding market clearing prices in markets with non-convexities has had a renewed interest due to the deregulation of the electricity sector. In the day-ahead electricity market, equilibrium prices are calculated ... -
Evaluation of the StoNED method for benchmarking and regulation of Norwegian electricity distribution companies
Bjørndal, Endre; Bjørndal, Mette (Report;2016:11, Research report, 2016-12)We evaluate the StoNED methodology for benchmarking and regulation of network companies, and we compare StoNED to the two-stage DEA method currently used by the Norwegian regulator. We find that the estimated values for ... -

Bjørndal, Endre; Bjørndal, Mette (Rapport, Research report, 2010-11)I denne rapporten foretar vi en evaluering av energileddet i sentralnettstariffen og bruken av marginaltapssatser. Vi går først gjennom teorien for optimale overføringstariffer og beskriver hvordan marginaltapssatser ... -
Finding the Right Yardstick: Regulation under Heterogeneous Environments
Bjørndal, Endre; Bjørndal, Mette; Cullmann, Astrid; Nieswand, Maria (Discussion paper;4/16, Working paper, 2016-02-25)Revenue cap regulation is often combined with systematic benchmarking to reveal the managerial inefficiencies when regulating natural monopolies. One example is the European energy sector, where benchmarking methods are ... -
Flow-Based Market Coupling in the European Electricity Market – A Comparison of Efficiency and Feasibility
Bjørndal, Endre; Bjørndal, Mette; Cai, Hong (Discussion paper;14/18, Working paper, 2018-10-23)In May 2015, the Flow-Based Market Coupling (FBMC) model replaced the Available Transfer Capacity (ATC) model in Central Western Europe to determine the power transfers between countries or price areas. The FBMC model aims ... -
Guarantees of Origin and Competition in the Spot Electricity Market
Blázquez, Mario; Hovdahl, Isabel; Arve, Malin; Bjørndal, Endre; Bjørndal, Mette (Discussion paper;24/23, Working paper, 2023-12-15)We study the effect of introducing a market for green energy attributes on the market for the energy itself. In Europe, renewable energy producers receive Guarantees of Origin (GOs) that they can sell to consumers who wish ... -
Hybrid Pricing in a Coupled European Power Market with More Wind Power
Bjørndal, Endre; Bjørndal, Mette; Cai, Hong; Panos, Evangelos (Discussion paper;28/15, Working paper, 2015-10-28)In the European market, the promotion of wind power leads to more network congestion. Zonal pricing (market coupling), which does not take the physical characteristics of transmission into account, is the most commonly ... -
Insentiver for investering i distribusjons- og regionalnett under ulike modellalternativer
Haugen, Erik; McGeorge, Kristian (Master thesis, 2017)Nettbransjen i Norge er et naturlig monopol og reguleres av Norges vassdrags- og energidirektorat (NVE). Strømnettet består av tre ulike nettnivå; sentral-, regional- og distribusjonsnett. Selskapene i regional- og ... -
Investment analysis of rooftop solar photovoltaic panels for energy-efficient residential areas in Norway, under different regulatory scenarios : Zero Village Bergen as a case study
Mekki, Adrian; Virk, Kamaljeet Singh (Master thesis, 2016)In Norway, buildings are responsible for 50% of stationary energy consumption; therefore reducing their carbon-footprint is an important area of research. Solar photovoltaic (PV) panels have seen significant technological ... -
Justeringsparameteren i inntektsreguleringen : vurdering av behov for endringer
Bjørndal, Endre; Bjørndal, Mette; Johnsen, Thore (Rapport, Research report, 2008-07)Tidsforsinkelser i reguleringsmodellen gjør det nødvendig å kompensere for rentetap som skyldes at avskrivning og avkastning på en investering genererer en forsinket inntektsramme i forhold til en ren ”Rate of Return” ... -
Koordinering av nordiske systemoperatører i kraftmarkedet : gevinster ved bedret kapasitetsutnyttelse og mer fleksibel prisområdeinndeling
Bjørndal, Mette; Jörnsten, Kurt (Rapport, Research report, 2001-08)I rapporten vurderes mulige gevinster ved å etablere en felles systemoperatørfunksjon i det nordiske kraftmarkedet, og fokus er i første rekke på håndtering av flaskehalser i overføringsnettet. For å kunne si noe om ... -
Lokal lagring : lokal energilagring i distribusjonsnettet, en del av mastergradprosjektet «Fremtidens nett»
Miftari, Valdrin; Schiøtz, Stian (Master thesis, 2018)Lokal lagring er et sentralt tema i diskusjonen om fremtidens kraftsystem, særlig bruken av batterier i strømnettet. Ny teknologi og fallende priser gjør det mer attraktivt å ta i bruk lokal lagring i stadig flere ... -
Malmquist Productivity Analysis based on StoNED
Cheng, Xiaomei; Bjørndal, Endre; Bjørndal, Mette (Discussion paper;25/15, Working paper, 2015-09-24)We construct a Malmquist productivity index based on stochastic non-parametric envelopment of data (StoNED) method, and we study how the distributional assumptions in the second StoNED stage affect productivity change ... -
Market power in a power market with transmission constraints
Bjørndal, Mette; Gribkovskaia, Victoria; Jörnsten, Kurt (Discussion papers;29/14, Working paper, 2014-06)In this paper we present a model for analysing the strategic behaviour of a generator and its short run implications on an electricity network with transmission constraints. The problem is formulated as a Stackelberg ... -
