摘要: In this paper, an innovative model of agent based simulation, on Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm is proposed in order to compare three available strategies clearing wholesale electricity markets, i.e. uniform, pay-as-bid, and generalized Vickrey rules. The supply side actors the power market are modeled as adaptive agents who learn how bid strategically optimize their profit through indirect interaction with other market. proper for bidding functions high number dimensions enables modelers avoid curse dimensionality dimension grows. Test systems then used study behavior each pricing rule under different degrees competition heterogeneity. Finally, rules comprehensively compared using economic criteria such average cleared price, efficiency allocation, price volatility. Also, principle component analysis (PCA) rank select best rule. To knowledge authors, first that uses ACO assessing
