Title: A Machine Learning Framework to Deconstruct the Primary Drivers for Electricity Market Price Events
Authors: Milan Jain, Xueqing Sun, Sohom Datta and Abhishek Somani
Abstract summary: Power grids are moving towards 100% renewable energy source bulk power grids. Traditional root cause analysis and statistical approaches are rendered inapplicable to analyze and infer the main drivers behind price formation. We propose a machine learning-based analysis framework to deconstruct the primary drivers for price spike events in modern electricity markets with high renewable energy.

Abstract: Power grids are moving towards 100% renewable energy source bulk power grids, and the overall dynamics of power system operations and electricity markets are changing. The electricity markets are not only dispatching resources economically but also taking into account various controllable actions like renewable curtailment, transmission congestion mitigation, and energy storage optimization to ensure grid reliability. As a result, price formations in electricity markets have become quite complex. Traditional root cause analysis and statistical approaches are rendered inapplicable to analyze and infer the main drivers behind price formation in the modern grid and markets with variable renewable energy (VRE). In this paper, we propose a machine learning-based analysis framework to deconstruct the primary drivers for price spike events in modern electricity markets with high renewable energy. The outcomes can be utilized for various critical aspects of market design, renewable dispatch and curtailment, operations, and cyber-security applications. The framework can be applied to any ISO or market data; however, in this paper, it is applied to open-source publicly available datasets from California Independent System Operator (CAISO) and ISO New England (ISO-NE).

PIMA-AS-OPF is a fully-connected neural network that takes the net load and the system topology as input. The outputs of this neural network include active constraints such as saturated generators and transmission lines, as well as non-zero load shedding and wind curtailments. The dispatch decisions and LMPs are then tested for their feasibility with respect to the requirements for efficient market-clearing results.

Understanding electricity prices beyond the merit order principle using explainable AI [0.0]
In perfect competition, the merit order principle describes that dispatchable power plants enter the market in the order of their marginal costs. Many market models implement this principle to predict electricity prices but typically require certain assumptions and simplifications. We present an explainable machine learning model for the prices on the German day-ahead market, which substantially outperforms a benchmark model.

Virtual Microgrid Management via Software-defined Energy Network for Electricity Sharing [10.13696311830345]
This article proposes an approach to build a virtual microgrid operated as a software-defined energy network (SDEN) The proposed cyber-physical system presumes that electrical energy is shared among its members and that the energy sharing is enabled in the cyber domain by handshakes inspired by resource allocation methods utilized in computer networks, wireless communications, and peer-to-peer Internet applications (e.g., BitTorrent) This article concludes that the proposed solution generally complies with the existing regulations but has highly disruptive potential to organize a dominantly electrified energy system in the mid- to long-term.

Exploring market power using deep reinforcement learning for intelligent bidding strategies [69.3939291118954]
We find that capacity has an impact on the average electricity price in a single year. The value of $sim$25% and $sim$11% may vary between market structures and countries. We observe that the use of a market cap of approximately double the average market price has the effect of significantly decreasing this effect and maintaining a competitive market.

A Deep Reinforcement Learning Framework for Continuous Intraday Market Bidding [69.37299910149981]
A key component for the successful renewable energy sources integration is the usage of energy storage. We propose a novel modelling framework for the strategic participation of energy storage in the European continuous intraday market. An distributed version of the fitted Q algorithm is chosen for solving this problem due to its sample efficiency. Results indicate that the agent converges to a policy that achieves in average higher total revenues than the benchmark strategy.

We introduce a potential multi-layered architecture for a Peer-to-Peer (P2P) energy market, discussing the fundamental aspects of local production and local consumption as part of a microgrid. To give a full picture to the reader, we also scrutinise relevant elements of energy trading, such as Smart Contract and grid stability.
