Overview
The electricity policy targets aim to provide sustainable and reliable electricity with efficient prices under uncertain demand. Any solution addressing a subset of the policy targets can affect the others. Current electricity markets do not achieve the above-stated targets efficiently, thus, there are debates on the use of carbon markets, capacity markets, and non-market mechanisms such as offer-caps, price-caps and market-monitoring. We focus on implementing all of the above policy targets by developing a framework for designing efficient auctions with constraints. We provide clear answers to the above debates. This multidisciplinary research is advised by Prof. Teneketzis (Ph.D. advisor) from Michigan EECS, Prof. Paul Milgrom from Stanford Economics, Prof. William Hogan from Harvard Kennedy School, and Prof. Asuman Ozdaglar from MIT EECS. It is also supported by NSF Grant on Foundations of Resilient Cyber-Physical Systems sponsored at UC Berkeley.
