Abstract

Recently, the volatility associated with marginal prices has increased due to large scale integration of renewable generation. Price volatility is undesirable from a consumer perspective. To address this issue, we present a framework for hedging that uses duality theory for quantifying the amount of demand-side flexibility required for constraining marginal prices to the consumers maximum willingness to pay for electricity. Using our formulation, we investigate the ability of an Energy Storage System (ESS), as a demand-side flexibility source, to hedge against electricity price volatility across a multi-time period horizon while accounting for its intertemporal constraints. Additionally, we analyze the economical benefit that operating the ESS under information forecasts brings to the consumers.
