Do we need an additional flexibility market in the
                       electricity system?

Joachim Bertsch, Christian Growitsch, Stefan Lorenczik, Stephan Nagl

             Institute of Energy Economics, University of Cologne
Background
• EU goal: 80 % of renewables in 2050
• Majority: Wind and photovoltaics

       Stochastic electricity generation

Two major impacts:
• Capacity mix has to be flexible enough
• Sufficient backup capacities needed
Background
Discussion of implications for backup capacities and capacity
mechanisms (e.g. Cramton and Stoft 2008, Joskow 2008 etc.)

Lamadrid et al. (2011) propose a
                “new market for ramping services”

CAISO discusses ramping product (Xu and Threteway 2012)

       Is there a need for an additional flexibility market?
Methodological approach (I)
Integrated system modelling
• Contribution of all parts of the electricity system, leading to
   interdependencies between different flexibility sources
• Inter-temporal dependencies (dispatch and investments)

Previous research
• Changes in optimal capacity mix from base to peak-load
   capacities (Nicolosi 2010, De Jonghe et al. 2011 etc.)
• Utilization rate rather than operational constraints determine
   investments into peak-load capacities (Nicolosi 2012)
Methodological approach (II)
Linear dispatch and investment model DIMENSION
• Object function minimizing total system costs
• Cost-efficient capacity and generation mix

Additions to previous literature
• Considering large deployment of renewables (EU goals)
• Renewables-dependent balancing power
• Demand side reactions
• CCS power plants with detachable CCS unit
Flexibility within the model
  Ramping / Start-up constraints (depending on characteristics of
  technology)

  Positive and negative balancing power provision (depending on
  expected wind and photovoltaics feed-in)

  operation                                           down)
- Start-up of technologies (OCGT)                   - Storage technologies
- Utilization of stored energy or stop of storage   - Curtailment of wind power
- Shifting through demand side management           - Shifting through demand side management
  (reduction)                                         (increase)
- Utilization of previously curtailed wind power
- Switching off CCS unit to increase power output

Conclusion

• Main trigger for investments are backup capacities
• Cost-efficient backup capacities are flexible (e.g. gas turbines)
• Under system adequacy, flexibility never poses a challenge in a
  cost-minimal capacity mix

       Any Market design providing incentives in cost-efficient
       generation technologies provides flexibility as an inevitable
       complement.
