Query: Optimization-based modelling and game-theoretic framework for
  techno-economic analysis of demand-side flexibility: a real case study   This paper proposes a two-step framework for techno-economic analysis of a
demand-side flexibility service in distribution networks. Step one applies
optimization-based modelling to propose a generic problem formulation which
determines the offer curve, in terms of available flexible capacity and its
marginal cost, for flexible distribution-connected assets. These offer curves
form an input to the second step, which uses a multi-agent iterative game
framework to determine the benefits of demand-side flexibility for the
Distribution System Operator (DSO) and the service providers. The combined
two-step framework simultaneously accounts for the objectives of each
flexibility provider, technical constraints of flexible assets, customer
preferences, market clearing mechanisms, and strategic bidding by service
providers, omission of any of which can lead to erroneous results. The proposed
two-step framework has been applied to a real case study in the North East of
England to examine four market mechanisms and three bidding strategies. The
results showed that among all considered market mechanisms, flexibility markets
that operate under discriminatory pricing, such as pay-as-bid and Dutch reverse
auctions, are prone to manipulations, especially in the lack of competition. In
contrast, uniform pricing pay-as-cleared auction provides limited opportunities
for manipulation even when competition is low.
