We focus the analysis on the length of the bidding period, i.e. the length of the time period a supplier has to provide balancing power capacities, and the question of how far before the beginning of a bidding period the auction should be carried out. We show that different load levels require different plants for the optimal provision of balancing power. In a longer bidding period, the power plants that have the lowest average cost in the bidding period are unlikely to be efficient in all hours of the bidding period. Hence, shortening bidding periods can increase efficiency. Furthermore, we show that an early commitment on a power plant's mode of operation (when uncertainty about resulting spot prices is still relatively high) also reduces efficiency. This suggests that the auction should be held relatively close to the beginning of the bidding period. Furthermore, we discuss some advantages of a liquid real time market.}, language = {en} } @incollection{MuesgensPeekSchulz, author = {M{\"u}sgens, Felix and Peek, Markus and Schulz, W.}, title = {Investigation on the Demand for Transmission Capacity - Investigation for France-Italy based on a Generation Dispatch Model}, series = {Analysis of Electricity Network Capacities and Identification of Congestion}, booktitle = {Analysis of Electricity Network Capacities and Identification of Congestion}, editor = {Haubrich, Hans-J{\"u}rgen}, publisher = {IAEW}, address = {Aachen}, language = {en} }
